    ALEXANDER & BALDWIN,
INC.

    EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE
PLAN

    

    

    

    INTRODUCTION

    

    The
purpose of the Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. Executive Severance Plan (the
“Plan”) is to retain key employees and to encourage such employees to use their
best business judgment in managing the affairs of Alexander & Baldwin, Inc.
and its divisions and subsidiaries (collectively, the
“Company”).  Therefore, the Company is willing to provide the
severance benefits described below to protect these employees if involuntarily
terminated without cause or laid off from employment as part of a job
elimination/restructuring or reduction in force.  It is further
intended that this Plan will complement other compensation program components to
assure a sound basis upon which the Company will retain key
employees.

    Definitions
and Exclusions

    

    Whenever
used in this Plan, the following words and phrases shall have the meanings set
forth below.  When the defined meaning is intended, the term is
capitalized:

     

    1.1           “Base Salary” means
the total amount of base salary payable to the participant at the salary rate in
effect on the last day of the participant’s employment with the
Company.  Base Salary does not include bonuses, reimbursed expenses,
credits or benefits under any plan of deferred compensation, to which the
Company contributes, or any additional cash compensation or compensation payable
in a form other than cash.

     

    1.2           “Board of Directors”

    1.3           “Cause” means
termination from employment with the Company upon:

     

    1.3(a)              the
willful and continued failure by the participant substantially to perform the
participant’s duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting
from the participant’s incapacity due to physical or mental
Disability).  For the purposes of this subparagraph and subparagraph
1.3(b), no act, or failure to act, on the participant’s part shall be considered
“willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the participant not in good
faith and without reasonable belief by the participant that his/her action or
omission was in the best interest of the Company; or

     

    1.3(b)              the
willful engaging by the participant in conduct that is demonstrably and
materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise.

     

    1.4           “Disability” shall
mean that an individual is deemed to be totally disabled by the Social Security
Administration.  

    

    1.5           “Employer” shall mean
the Company or the entity for whom services are performed and with respect to
whom the legally binding right to compensation arises, and all entities with
whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Section 414(b) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); provided that in
applying Section 1563(a)(1), (2), and (3) of the Code for purposes of
determining a controlled group of corporations under Section 414(b) of the Code,
the language “at least 50 percent” is used instead of “at least 80 percent” each
place it appears in Section 1563(a)(1), (2), and (3) of the Code, and in
applying Treasury Regulation § 1.414(c)-2 for purposes of determining trades or
businesses (whether or not incorporated) that are under common control for
purposes of Section 414(c) of the Code, “at least 50 percent” is used instead of
“at least 80 percent” each place it appears in Treasury Regulation § 1.414(c)-2;
provided, however, “at least 20 percent” shall replace “at least 50 percent” in
the preceding clause if there is a legitimate business criteria for using such
lower percentage.

    

    1.6           “Identification Date”
means each December 31.

    

    1.7           “Key
Employee”
means a participant who, on an Identification Date, is:

    

    1.7(a)            
An officer of the Company of having annual compensation greater than the
compensation limit in section 416(i)(1)(A)(i) of the Code, provided that no more
than fifty officers of the Company shall be determined to be Key Employees as of
the Identification Date;

    

    1.7(b)             
A five percent owner of the Company; or

    

    1.7(c)            
A one percent owner of the Company having annual compensation from the Company
of more than $150,000.

    

    If a participant is
identified as a Key Employee on an Identification Date, then such participant
shall be considered a Key Employee for purposes of the Plan during the period
beginning on the first April 1 following the Identification Date and ending on
the next March 31.  For purposes of this Section 1.7 only and
for determining whether a participant is a Key Employee, the “Company” shall
mean the Company and its affiliates that are treated as a single employer under
Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code, and for purposes of determining whether a
participant is a Key Employee, Treasury Regulation § 1.415(c)-2(d)(4) shall be
used to calculate compensation.

    

    1.8           “Layoff” means the
elimination of a job due to economic reasons, whether or not as part of job
elimination or restructuring, or as a reduction-in-force affecting one or more
positions.  Layoff does not include resignation from employment or
Separation from Service by reason of death, Disability, or discharge for
Cause.  A participant is not considered to have been laid off, and
will not be entitled to severance benefits described in Article 3, if the Plan
Administrator determines, in its discretion, that either the Company or a
purchaser or other successor has offered comparable employment to the
participant to commence after the participant’s Separation from Service, whether
or not the participant accepts the position offered.

    

    1.9           “Separation
from Service”
shall mean termination of employment with the Employer, other than due to
death.  A participant shall be deemed to have experienced a Separation
from Service if the participant’s service with the Employer is reduced to an
annual rate that is less than fifty percent of the services rendered, on
average, during the immediately preceding three full years of employment with
the Employer (or if employed by the Employer less than three years, such lesser
period).

    Eligibility
for Benefits

    

    2.1           Eligibility.  To
be eligible for Plan benefits, employees must serve in a job categorized as
Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. Chief Executive Officer, Band A, or Band B under
the Company’s job evaluation program.  Exceptions (additions or
deletions) to the eligibility requirements can be made only by the Alexander
& Baldwin, Inc. Chief Executive Officer, with the approval of the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”).

     

    2.2           Benefits.  Except
as provided in Section 2.3, if the participant experiences an involuntary
Separation from Service without Cause or a Separation from Service because of a
Layoff, the Company shall pay to the participant the severance benefits
described in Section 3.1.  (For the purposes of this section,
“involuntary” means a Separation from Service that is due to the independent
exercise of the unilateral authority of the Employer, other than due to the
participant’s request, and where the participant was willing and able to
continue to perform services.)  A participant receiving benefits under
this Plan shall not be eligible for benefits under Alexander & Baldwin Human
Resources Policy No. 1.08, Matson Navigation Company (and its wholly owned
subsidiaries) Personnel Policy Bulletin No. 1.08, or any other or successor
separation policy or policies.

     

    2.3           Change in
Control.  In the event the Company experiences a “change in
control”, as defined in section 409A of the Code and the final regulations and
any guidance promulgated thereunder, and the Company and a participant have
entered into an agreement concerning a change in control of the Company, the terms of such
agreement, and not this Plan, shall govern.  In such case, no benefits
shall be payable to the participant under this Plan.

     

    2.4           Plan
Administration.  Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. shall serve as
the Plan Administrator.  The Plan Administrator is responsible for the
general administration and management of this Plan and shall have all powers and
duties necessary to fulfill its responsibilities, including, but not limited to,
the discretion to interpret and apply this Plan and to determine all questions
relating to eligibility for benefits.  This Plan shall be interpreted
in accordance with its terms and their intended meanings.  However,
the Plan Administrator and all plan fiduciaries shall have the discretion to
interpret or construe ambiguous, unclear, or implied (but omitted) terms in any
fashion they deem to be appropriate in their sole discretion, and to make any
findings of fact needed in the administration of this Plan.  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.

     

    Article

    Severance
Benefits

    

    3.1           Type and Amount of
Benefits.  If severance benefits become payable under this
Plan, benefits shall consist of the following:

     

    3.1(a)              Monetary
Payments/Reimbursement.  The participant shall receive an
amount equal to six (6) months of the participant’s Base Salary, one-twelfth of
which shall be paid each month for a period of one year, beginning in the first
month following the date of the participant’s Separation from
Service.  Should the participant, prior to his or her Separation from
Service, execute (and not revoke) a release agreement prepared by the Plan
Administrator,  the participant shall receive additional amounts as
follows:  (i) an amount equal to six (6) months of the participant’s
Base Salary, one-twelfth of which shall be paid each month for a period of one
year, beginning in the first month following the date of the participant’s
Separation from Service; (ii) reimbursement for expenses arising from individual
outplacement counseling services (in an amount not to exceed ten thousand
dollars ($10,000.00)) that are incurred no later than 2 years after the date of
the participant’s Separation from Service, and are reimbursed by the Company no
later than 3 years after the date of the participant’s Separation from Service;
and, (iii) a pro rated share of the award opportunity at “Target” under the
Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. One-Year Performance Improvement Incentive Plan
and the Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. Three-Year Performance Improvement
Incentive Plan, as applicable, that otherwise would have been payable to the
participant had the participant remained employed until the end of the
applicable performance period(s) of such plans.  The payment under
subsections 3.1(a)(i) and (iii) shall be payable upon the expiration of the
seven-day revocation period contained in the release agreement prepared by the
Plan Administrator and executed by the participant (i.e., once the release becomes irrevocable); provided,
however, that such payment must be paid no later than 60 days following the date
of the participant’s Separation from Service.  If the release is not executed and irrevocable by the
end of such 60-day period, the participant shall not be entitled to any benefit
under this Plan.  The Company retains the sole discretion to
determine when during the 60-day period the payment will be made.  If
the sum of the amounts to be paid to a participant under subsections 3.1(a)(i)
and (iii) exceeds two times the lesser of (i) the sum of the participant’s
annualized compensation for the taxable year preceding the year in which the
participant experiences a Separation from Service or (ii) the compensation limit
for qualified plans under section 401(a)(17) of the Code as in effect for the
year in which the Separation from Service occurs (the “Excess”), then, notwithstanding any other
provision in this Plan to the contrary, any Excess scheduled to be paid upon
Separation from Service to a participant who is identified as a Key Employee as
of the date he or she experiences a Separation from Service shall be delayed for
a minimum of six months following the participant’s Separation from
Service.  Any payment of Excess to a Key Employee delayed under this
subsection shall be made on the first business
day after the
six-month anniversary of the participant’s Separation from Service and shall be
credited with interest during such six-month period at a rate computed
using 120% of the short-term applicable federal rate for a semi-annual
compounding period under Code Section 1274(d), applicable for the month in which
the participant’s Separation from Service occurs, provided that such interest
rate shall not exceed 120% of the long-term applicable federal interest rate
under Code Section 1274(d).  The identification of a
participant as a Key Employee shall be made by the Company in accordance with
Section 1.7 of the Plan and sections 416(i) and 409A of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder.

     

    3.1(b)              Benefits.  For
the period that separation payments continue under subparagraph 3.1(a) above, or
until the participant becomes employed with another employer offering any such
benefits (whichever is earlier), Basic Group Life Insurance and Basic Accidental
Death & Dismemberment Insurance shall continue as they were in effect for
the participant on the date of the participant’s termination of
employment.

     

       
3.1(b)(i)                   Group Medical, Dental, Drug
and Vision Coverage.  For a maximum period of twelve (12)
months following Separation from Service, or until the participant becomes
employed with another employer offering any such benefits (whichever is
earlier), the Company shall reimburse the participant for the amount of the
premiums payable by the participant for post-termination continuation under the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended
(“COBRA”).  Payment of premiums for COBRA coverage beyond twelve (12)
months following Separation from Service is the sole responsibility of the
participant.

     

    3.2           Death
Benefits.  If the participant dies during the severance benefit
period, the severance benefits as described in this Article 3 that have not yet
been paid shall be paid to the participant’s designated beneficiary in a lump
sum within 60 days following the participant’s death.  Any beneficiary
designation must be provided to the Company in writing by the participant, prior
to his or her death.

     

    3.3           Committee
Discretion.  The severance benefits as described in this
Article 3 may be increased or decreased by the Committee in its absolute
discretion.  Such adjustments may be applied selectively with respect
to one or more individual participants.

     

    Article
4

    Employment
Status

    

    4.1           Right to Terminate
Employment.  This Plan shall not be deemed to constitute an
employment contract between the Company and the participant.  Nothing
contained herein shall give the participant the right to be retained in the
employ of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discharge
the participant at any time, nor shall it give the Company the right to require
the participant to remain in its employ or to interfere with the participant’s
right to terminate employment at any time.

     

    4.2           Status During Benefit
Period.  Commencing upon the date of the participant’s
Separation from Service, the participant shall cease to be an employee of the
Company for any purpose.  The payment of severance benefits under this
Plan shall be payments to a former employee.

Request.  To initiate the review, the claimant, within 60 days

to the claimant’s request for review within 60 days after receiving the
request.  If the Plan Administrator determines that special
circumstances require additional time for processing the request, the Plan
Administrator can extend the response period by an additional 60 days by
notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial 60-day
period, which an additional period is required.  The notice of
extension must set forth the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to
render its decision.

     

    5.2(d)              Notice of

determining whether to approve or deny any claim or any appeal from a denied
claim, the Plan Administrator shall exercise its discretionary authority to
interpret the Plan and the facts presented with respect to the claim, and its

Plan.  Any approval or denial shall be final and conclusive upon all
persons.

    

    5.4           Exhaustion of
Remedies.  Except as required by applicable law, no action at

adoption and maintenance of this Plan shall not be deemed to confer on any

but not by way of limitation, execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge,
bankruptcy, assignments for the benefit of creditors, receiverships, or in any
other manner, excluding transfer by operation of law as a result solely of
mental incompetency.

payable under this Plan.

    A&B DEFERRED
COMPENSATION PLAN

    FOR OUTSIDE
DIRECTORS

    Amended
and Restated Effective as of January 1, 2008

    

    

    Alexander &
Baldwin, Inc. ("A&B" or the “Company”) hereby provides members of A&B’s
Board of Directors who are not A&B employees ("Outside Directors") the
opportunity to defer payment of retainer and meeting fees in accordance with the
following:

    

    1.           Amount Which May Be
Deferred.  An
Outside Director may elect to defer all or a portion of his/her fees in
accordance with the options set forth on the applicable deferral election form,
a copy of which shall be provided by A&B.

    

    2.           Period of Deferral.  All
deferrals shall be until the Outside Director experiences a Separation from
Service.  For purposes of this A&B Deferred Compensation Plan for
Outside Directors (the “Plan”), “Separation from Service” shall mean termination
of service with A&B as described in section 409A of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated
thereunder.  Once specified, the date(s) for payment of deferred fees
may not be changed.

    

    3.           Election to Defer.  Election
to defer may be made within 30 days following the date an individual first
becomes an Outside Director of A&B or thereafter in December of each
year.  In December of each year, the Human Relations Department will
send to each Outside Director a deferral election form.  Elections to
defer shall be irrevocable on the first day of the calendar year following the
year in which the election was made.  For an election to be effective
for any calendar year, the form must be executed by the Outside Director,
returned to A&B, and accepted and approved by the Human Relations Department
before the beginning of the calendar year for which the election is to be
effective.  Such election shall be effective and irrevocable on
January 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Human
Relations Department accepts and approves the Outside Director's executed
election form.  Any election will apply to subsequent calendar years
until the Outside Director provides A&B with a notice to modify or revoke
the election.  Such notice to modify or revoke the election will
become irrevocable and effective on the January 1 following the year in which it
was made.  Notice of modification or revocation of an election must be
submitted in writing, and may be submitted to the A&B Human Relations
Department at any time.

    

    4.           Payout of Deferred
Fees.  Except as provided otherwise in this paragraph, deferred
fees will be paid to Outside Directors in accordance with the schedule of
payments specified in the deferral election form.  Payments will be
made in January of the year in which payments are scheduled.  If an
Outside Director does not make any election with respect to the form of a
payment, then such payment shall be payable in a lump sum in the January
following his or her Separation from Service.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, as defined hereafter, the
Plan shall automatically terminate, and the present value of the benefit to
which each Outside Director is entitled shall be paid to the Outside Director in
a single lump sum within thirty (30) days following the Change in
Control.  The Company retains the sole discretion to determine when
during the 30-day period the payment will be made.  For purposes of
this Plan, a “Change in Control” means a “change of control” of A&B as
defined in Section 409A of the Code and the final regulations and any guidance
promulgated thereunder.

    

    5.           Interest on Account
Balance.  Deferred
fees will be credited with interest, compounded annually, at a per annum rate
equal to 1% above the New York Federal Reserve Bank discount rate in effect on
December 31 of each calendar year.

    

    6.           Funding the Deferral
Account.  Deferred
fee accounts will not be funded.  The accounts will be maintained by
A&B only as book accounts, and no trust account, fiduciary relationship, or
other security arrangement will be established, other than, at the option of
A&B, an escrow account the amounts in which remain subject to the claims of
A&B's general creditors in the event of insolvency or
bankruptcy.  Because this Plan is unfunded, the Outside Directors must
rely solely on the general credit of A&B for payment of deferred
fees.  However, A&B in its sole discretion may establish and
maintain a “rabbi” trust, which shall be a trust in which the Company may
deposit amounts determined under the Plan.  Any “rabbi” trust assets
are subject to the claims of A&B’s creditors in the event of bankruptcy or
insolvency, until paid to the Outside Directors and their
beneficiaries.  The “rabbi” trust shall constitute an unfunded
arrangement providing deferred compensation to a select group of management or
highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

    

    7.           Designation of Beneficiaries.  Each
participating Outside Director may file with A&B a written designation of
one or more primary beneficiaries and one or more contingent beneficiaries to
whom payments otherwise due to the Outside Director at the date of his/her death
shall be made after the death of the Outside Director.  Such payments
will be made in such amounts and at such times as would have been made to the
Outside Director had he/she lived.  The written designation must be
received by the Company prior to the death of the Outside Director.  A
beneficiary may not, under any circumstances, change the time and form of the
payments.  Such payments will be divided among the primary
beneficiaries who survive the Outside Director in such proportion as directed in
the written designation.  If no primary beneficiary survives the
Outside Director, such payment will be divided among the contingent
beneficiaries who survive the Outside Director in such proportion as directed in
the written designation.  If no primary or contingent beneficiary
survives the Outside Director or is designated by the Outside Director, such
payments will be made to the estate of the Outside Director.  At the
discretion of the Compensation Committee of the A&B Board of Directors,
payments to the estate of the Outside Director may be made in a lump-sum equal
to the full amount of the Outside Director's deferred fee account; provided,
however, that such payment will not be made later than 90 days following the
Outside Director’s death. The Company retains the sole discretion to determine
when during the 90-day period the payment will be made.

    

    8.           Miscellaneous.

    

    A.           Inalienability.  No
Outside Director or beneficiary, or any other person having or claiming to have
any interest of any kind or character in or under this Plan or in any of the
deferred fees or any part thereof or payment therefrom shall have the right to
sell, assign, transfer, convey, hypothecate, anticipate, pledge or otherwise
dispose of such interest; and to the extent permitted by law, such interest
shall not be subject to any liabilities or obligations of the Outside Director
or to any bankruptcy proceedings, creditor claims, attachment, garnishments,
execution, levy or other legal process against such Outside Director or his/her
property.

    

    B.           Controlling Law.  This Plan shall
be construed, administered, and governed in all respects in accordance with the
laws of the State of Hawaii.  The Plan shall also be construed in a
manner that is consistent and compliant with Section 409A of the Code, and any
regulations promulgated thereunder.  Any provision that is
noncompliant with Section 409A of the Code is void or deemed amended to comply
with Section 409A of the Code.  A&B does not guarantee or warrant
the tax consequences of the Plan, and the Outside Directors shall in all cases
be liable for any taxes due with respect to Plan.

    

    C.           No Service
Contract.  The adoption and
maintenance of this Plan shall not be deemed to confer on any Outside Director
any right to continue in the service of the Company, and shall not be deemed to
interfere with the right of the Company to terminate the service of any Outside
Director.

    

    D.           Binding
Agreement.  This Plan shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and
assigns, and the Outside Directors and their beneficiaries, heirs, executors,
administrators and legal repre­sentatives.

    

    E.           Gender and
Number.  Any masculine
pronouns used herein shall refer to both men and women, and the use of any term
herein in the singular may also include the plural unless other­wise
indicated by context.

    

    F.           Severability.  If any provision
of this Plan is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, all remaining provisions shall continue to be fully
effective.

WITNESS WHEREOF, Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. has caused this plan to be
