Form or Restricted Stock Award Agreement

 Exhibit 10.17 
  
 CENTENNIAL BANK HOLDINGS, INC. 
 2005 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT 
  
 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in
the Centennial Bank Holdings, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) shall have the same defined meanings in this Stock Award Agreement (“Agreement”) and the Notice of Stock Award Grant attached hereto as Appendix A.

  
 2. Grant of Stock Award. Pursuant to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Notice of Stock Award Grant, this Agreement, and the Plan, Centennial Bank Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) grants to the grantee named in the Notice of Stock Award Grant (“Grantee”) on the date of grant
set forth in the Notice of Stock Award Grant (“Date of Grant”) the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Stock Award Grant. This Stock Award is intended to be a Restricted Stock Award or a Performance Stock Award, as provided in the
Notice of Stock Award Grant. 
  
 3. Vesting. The Grantee
shall vest in the Granted Stock in accordance with the vesting schedule provided for in the Notice of Stock Award Grant; provided, however, that the Grantee shall cease vesting in the Granted Stock on the Grantee’s Termination Date or the date
on which the Administrator determines that the vesting conditions provided for in the Notice of Stock Award Grant were not satisfied during the designated period of time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Vesting Event, the
Grantee shall become 100% vested in those shares of Granted Stock that are outstanding on the date of the Vesting Event. 
  
 4. Risk of Forfeiture. 
  
 (a) General Rule. The Granted Stock shall initially be subject to a Risk of Forfeiture. The Shares subject to a Risk of Forfeiture
shall be referred to herein as “Restricted Shares”. 
  
 (b) Lapse of Risk of Forfeiture. The Risk of Forfeiture shall lapse as the Grantee vests in the Granted Stock. 
  
 (c) Forfeiture of Granted Stock. The Restricted Shares shall automatically be forfeited and immediately returned to the Company on
the Grantee’s Termination Date or the date on which the Administrator determines that the vesting conditions provided for in the Notice of Stock Award Grant were not satisfied during the designated period of time. 
  
 (d) Additional Shares or Substituted Securities. In
the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding Shares effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as 

 
an ordinary cash dividend) which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to any Restricted Shares or into which such Restricted Shares
thereby become convertible shall immediately be subject to a Risk of Forfeiture, which Risk of Forfeiture shall lapse at the same time and in the same manner as the Risk of Forfeiture to which the corresponding Restricted Share is subject.

  
 (e) Escrow. Upon issuance, the stock
certificates for Granted Stock shall be deposited in escrow with the Company to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property described in Subsection (d) above shall
immediately be delivered to the Company to be held in escrow, but only to the extent the shares of Granted Stock are at the time Restricted Shares. Any regular cash dividends to be paid on Restricted Shares (or other securities at the time held in
escrow) shall be paid directly to the Grantee and shall not be held in escrow (such distributions may, however, be delivered to an address at the Company for delivery to the Grantee). Restricted Shares, together with any other assets or securities
held in escrow hereunder, shall be (i) surrendered to the Company for cancellation upon forfeiture of the Restricted Shares; or (ii) released to the Grantee upon the Grantee’s request to the Administrator on or after the date the shares of
Granted Stock are no longer Restricted Shares. 
  
 5. Rights as
a Stockholder. The Grantee shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the voting of the Granted Stock. In addition, the Grantee shall receive any dividends paid by the Company in respect of the Granted Stock on or after the [initial]
vesting date set forth in the Notice of Stock Award Grant. 
  
 6.
Non-transferability of Stock Award. Except as otherwise provided for in Section 15 of the Plan, this Stock Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only by the Grantee. If the Grantee transfers all or part of this Stock Award pursuant to the previous sentence, then the terms of this Agreement, the Plan and the
Notice of Stock Award shall apply to the transferee to the same extent as to the Grantee. 
  
 7. Regulatory Compliance. The issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to full compliance with all then applicable requirements of law and the requirements of any stock exchange or
interdealer quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed or traded. 
  
 8. Modification and Termination. The rights of the Grantee are subject to modification and termination in certain events, as provided in the Plan. 
  
 9. Withholding Tax. The Company’s obligation to deliver Shares or remove any restrictive legends upon vesting of
such Shares under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements. The Grantee shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the withholding amount (or the
Company may withhold such amount from the Grantee’s salary) in cash. In the Administrator’s sole discretion, the Grantee may pay the withholding amount with Shares (including previously 

  

 -2- 

 
vested Granted Stock); provided, however, that payment in Shares shall be limited to the withholding amount calculated using the minimum statutory
withholding rates. 
  
 10. Nondisclosure. Grantee
acknowledges that the grant and terms of this Stock Award are confidential and may not be disclosed by Grantee to any other person, including other employees of the Company and other participants in the Plan, without the express written consent of
the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may disclose the grant and terms of this Stock Award to the Grantee’s family member, financial advisor, and attorney and as may be required by law or
regulation. Any breach of this provision will be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement. 
  
 11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard
to principles of conflict of laws. 
  
 12. Successors. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their legal representatives, heirs, and permitted transferees, successors and assigns. 
  
 13. Plan. This Agreement and the Notice of Stock Award Grant are subject to all of the terms and provisions of the
Plan, receipt of a copy of which is hereby acknowledged by the Grantee. The Grantee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions and interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan, this
Agreement, and the Notice of Stock Award Grant. 
  
 14. Rights
to Future Employment. This Stock Award does not confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the Service of the Company or any Affiliate, nor does it limit the right of the Company to terminate the Service of the Grantee at any time.

  
 15. Entire Agreement. The Notice of Stock Award Grant,
this Agreement, and the Plan constitute the entire contract between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. They supersede any other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or
implied) which relate to the subject matter hereof.

 Execution Copy 
  
 CONSULTING AGREEMENT 
  
 This consulting agreement (the “Agreement”) is dated as of June 1,
2005, and is entered into by and among Sharon Laurent (“Consultant”) and Centennial Bank Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CBH” or the “Company”). 
  
 WHEREAS, Consultant has been an employee of the Company since May 2, 1983, most recently in the role of Executive Vice
President, Operations of CBH and Executive Vice President, Operations of Guaranty Bank and Trust Company; 
  
 WHEREAS, as an inducement to render services and superior performance, Consultant and the Company have decided to enter into this Agreement; 

 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Consulting
Services. During the Term of Consultancy, Consultant shall provide the consulting services set forth in Exhibit I hereto to CBH and its subsidiaries and shall perform such services in a diligent, trustworthy, and business-like manner, all
for the purpose of advancing the business of the Company. 
  
 2.
Consulting Fee and Benefits. 
  
 (a)
Consulting Fee. The Company shall, during the Term of Consultancy, pay Consultant an annual consulting fee of $187,500 (the “Consulting Fee”). Such Consulting Fee shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices
as in effect from time to time. Consultant shall be responsible for paying all applicable tax withholding. 
  
 (b) Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Consultant for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by Consultant in connection with the provision of her services. Consultant shall be required to submit to the Company appropriate documentation supporting such out-of-pocket expenses as a prerequisite to reimbursement. 
  
 (c) Use of Company Equipment. During the Term of
Consultancy, Consultant shall have the right to use, for business purposes, the items set forth in Exhibit II, which are the property of the Company (including the data and intellectual property included therein). Upon the earlier of the end
of the Term of Consultancy and the termination of this Agreement, Consultant shall return such items to the Company, including all data and intellectual property included therein. 
  
 3. Term of Agreement. 
  
 (i) General. Consultant’s services under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue in effect until
December 31, 2006, unless earlier terminated as set forth herein (the “Term of Consultancy”). 
  

 4. General Termination Provisions. If either the Company or Consultant terminates this Agreement
under the provisions of this Section 4, the Company will be liable to Consultant for all payments (if any) as described in Section 4, as follows: 
  
 (a) Termination by the Company. The Company may terminate Consultant’s services for Cause and, upon such termination, the
Company shall have no further obligation to make payments under this Agreement, except for paying amounts that have already become payable as of the date of such termination, but have not yet been paid. 
  
 (b) Termination by Consultant. Consultant may
terminate her services at any time during the Term of Consultancy, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice. If Consultant terminates her services, the Company shall have no further obligation to make payments under this Agreement, except for
paying amounts that have already become payable as of the date of such termination, but have not yet been paid. 
  
 (c) The Company’s obligation to make any payment to Consultant as described in this Section 4 is contingent upon Consultant’s
execution of a Waiver and Release of Claims, a form of which is attached to this Agreement as Annex A. 
  
 5. Special Termination Provisions. 
  
 (a) If, during the Term of Consultancy, the Company terminates Consultant’s services other than for Cause, then the Company shall pay
to the Consultant in one lump sum within five (5) days of such termination, an aggregate amount in cash equal to her Consulting Fee for the then remaining Term of Consultancy. 
  
 (b) The Company’s obligation to make any payments to Consultant as described in this Section 5 is
contingent upon Consultant’s execution of a Waiver and Release of Claims, a form of which is attached to this Agreement as Annex A. Except as described in this Section 5, Consultant shall not be eligible to receive any other severance
benefits under any severance or termination plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained by the Company or its affiliates. 
  
 6. Covenants Not to Solicit Company Clients and Employees; Confidential Information. 
  
 (a) Non-Solicitation. During the Term of Consultancy
and for a one (1) year period thereafter (collectively, the “Restricted Period”), Consultant shall not, in any manner, directly or indirectly (without the prior written consent of the Company): (i) Solicit any Client to transact business
with a Competitive Enterprise in a Restricted Territory or to reduce or refrain from doing any business with the Company, (ii) transact business with any Client that would cause Consultant to be a Competitive Enterprise in a Restricted Territory,
(iii) interfere with or damage any relationship between the Company and a Client or (iv) Solicit anyone who is then an employee of the Company (or who was an employee of the Company within the prior 12 months) to resign from the Company or to apply
for or accept employment with any other business or enterprise. 
  

 2 

 For purposes of this Agreement, “Competitive Enterprise” means any business enterprise that
either (A) engages in any activity closely associated with commercial banking or the operation of an institution, the deposits of which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, in a Restricted Territory, or (B) holds a 25% or
greater equity, voting or profit participation interest in any enterprise that engages in such a competitive activity, and “Restricted Territory” means the geographic area of the State of Colorado extending from the continental divide to
the eastern State boundary. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Client” means any client or prospective client of the Company to whom Consultant provided services, or for whom Consultant transacted business, or whose identity became known
to Consultant in connection with her relationship with the Company, and “Solicit” means any direct or indirect communication of any kind, regardless of who initiates it, that in any way invites, advises, encourages or requests any person
to take or refrain from taking any action. 
  
 (b) Confidential Information. Consultant hereby acknowledges that, as a Consultant of the Company, she will be making use of, acquiring and adding to confidential information of a special and unique nature and value relating to the
Company and its strategic plans, operations, financial condition and performance and such confidential information constitutes trade secrets of the Company. Consultant further recognizes and acknowledges that all confidential information is the
exclusive property of the Company, is material and confidential, and is critical to the successful conduct of the business of the Company. Accordingly, Consultant hereby covenants and agrees that she will use confidential information for the benefit
of the Company only and shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, during the Term of Consultancy and thereafter divulge, reveal or communicate any confidential information to any person, firm, corporation or entity whatsoever, or use any
confidential information for her own benefit or for the benefit of others. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant shall be authorized to disclose confidential information (i) as may be required by law or legal process after providing the Company
with prior written notice and an opportunity to respond to such disclosure (unless such notice is prohibited by law), (ii) in any criminal proceeding against her after providing the Company with prior written notice and an opportunity to seek
protection for such confidential information and (iii) with the prior written consent of the Company. 
  
 (c) Survival. Any termination of Consultant’s services, of the Term of Consultancy or of this Agreement (or breach of this
Agreement by Consultant or the Company) shall have no effect on the continuing operation of this Section 6. 
  
 (d) Validity. The terms and provisions of this Section 6 are intended to be separate and divisible provisions and if, for any
reason, any one or more of them is held to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the validity nor the enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement shall thereby be affected. The parties hereto acknowledge that the potential restrictions on
Consultant’s future employment imposed by this Section 6 are reasonable in both duration and geographic scope and in all other respects. If for any reason any court of competent jurisdiction shall find any provisions of this Section 6
unreasonable in duration or geographic scope or otherwise, Consultant and the 

  

 3 

 
Company agree that the restrictions and prohibitions contained herein shall be effective to the fullest extent allowed under applicable law in such
jurisdiction. 
  
 (e) Consideration. The
parties acknowledge that this Agreement would not have been entered into and the benefits described herein would not have been promised in the absence of Consultant’s promises under this Section 6. 
  
 (f) Cease Payments. In the event that Consultant
breaches Section 6(a) or 6(b), the Company’s obligation to make or provide payments or benefits under Section 4 or 5 shall cease, to the extent not already paid or provided. 
  
 (g) Notice to Employers. Before Consultant either applies for or accepts employment with any person
or entity while any of Section 6(a) or 6(b) is in effect, Consultant will provide the prospective employer with written notice of the provisions of this Section 6 and will deliver a copy of the notice to the Company. 
  
 7. Definitions. 
  
 (a) Board. “Board” shall mean the Board of
Directors of the Company. 
  
 (b) Cause.
Termination of services for “Cause” shall mean that, prior to any termination pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii) hereof, Consultant shall have committed: 
  

(i) an intentional act of fraud, embezzlement or theft; 
  
 (ii) intentional damage to property of the Company; 
  
 (iii) intentional disclosure of confidential information or
trade secrets of the Company or information relating to customers of the Company or its parent, a subsidiary or affiliate; 
  
 (iv) willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order;

  
 (v) an act constituting a felony or a
misdemeanor involving moral turpitude for which the Consultant is convicted by any federal, state or local authority, or to which the Consultant enters a plea of guilty or nolo contendere; 
  
 (vi) an act or omission that causes Consultant to be
disqualified or barred by any governmental or self-regulatory authority from serving in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement or losing any governmental or self-regulatory license that is reasonably necessary for Consultant to perform her
responsibilities to the Company under this Agreement; or 
  
 (vii) intentional breach of corporate fiduciary duty involving personal profit. 
  

 4 

 For the purposes of this Agreement, no act, or failure to act, on the part of Consultant shall be deemed
“intentional” unless done, or omitted to be done, by Consultant not in good faith and without reasonable belief that her action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. 
  
 8. Governing Law. This Agreement is made and entered into in the State
of Colorado, without regard to conflict of laws rules, and the laws of Colorado shall govern its validity and interpretation in the performance by the parties of their respective duties and obligations. 
  
 9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties concerning the services of Consultant and supercedes any prior written agreements (including, but not limited to the employment agreement between the Consultant and the Company dated October 27, 2004), and there are no

 10. Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify Consultant for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, payments, costs or
expenses of any kind whatsoever (collectively referred to herein as “Losses”) that may be imposed on, incurred, or asserted against Consultant as the result of any act or omission in any way relating to this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be liable for any Losses resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of Consultant or its officers, employees or representatives. 
  
 11. Arbitration. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any
dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or breach thereof, or arising out of or relating in any way to the services of the Consultant or the termination thereof, shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance
with the Voluntary Labor Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In reaching his or her decision, the arbitrator shall have
no authority to ignore, change, modify, add to or delete from any provision of this Agreement, but instead is limited to interpreting this Agreement. In the case of any arbitration or subsequent judicial proceeding arising after Consultant’s
discharge or termination, Consultant shall be awarded her costs, including attorneys’ fees, provided Consultant substantially prevails on at least one claim. 
  
 12. Assistance in Litigation. Consultant shall make herself available, upon the request of the Company, to testify or
otherwise assist in litigation, arbitration, or other disputes involving the Company, or any of the directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, or parent corporations of either, at no additional cost during the term of this Agreement and at any
time following the termination of Consultant’s services for any reason, at the rate of One Thousand and No/l00 Dollars ($1,000) per day or portion thereof, plus all associated out-of-pocket expenses for complying with this Section 12.

 In consideration of the payments and arrangements set forth in the Consulting
Agreement between you and Centennial Bank Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), dated June 1, 2005 (the “Consulting Agreement”) and incorporated herein by reference, you agree knowingly and voluntarily as
follows: 
  

	 	1.	You knowingly and voluntarily waive and release forever whatever claims you ever had, now have or hereafter may have against the Company and any subsidiary or affiliate of the
Company, and any of its present and former employees, directors, officers and agents (collectively referred to as “Releasees”), based upon any offer, agreement, matter, occurrence or event existing or occurring prior to the execution of
this waiver and release of claims, including anything relating to your employment and consultancy by the Company or to the termination of such employment or consultancy or to your status as a shareholder or creditor of the Company.

  
 This release and waiver includes but is not
limited to any rights or claims under United States federal, state or local law and the national or local law of any foreign country (statutory or decisional), for wrongful or abusive discharge, for breach of any contract, for misrepresentation, for
breach of any securities laws, or for discrimination based upon race, color, ethnicity, sex, age, national origin, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or any other unlawful criterion or circumstance, including rights or claims under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) (except that you do not waive ADEA rights or claims that may arise after the date of this waiver and release of claims). 
  

	 	2.	The payments received by you pursuant to the Consulting Agreement shall be in lieu of any and all other amounts to which you might be, are now or may become entitled from the
Company and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you hereby expressly waive any right or claim that you may have or assert to payment for Consulting Fees, salary, bonuses, medical, dental or hospitalization benefits, life insurance
benefits or attorneys’ fees; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, you do not waive any of your rights and the Company shall comply with its obligations with respect to (i) the payments and
arrangements set forth in the Consulting Agreement and (ii) continuation coverage requirements under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (commonly referred to as “COBRA”).

your agreement that you will not disclose, directly or indirectly, to anyone other than your spouse, counsel, accountants or financial advisors, the terms of this release and waiver of claims or the Consulting Agreement, except as may be required by

 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, you hereby expressly agree that any severance payment and arrangements set forth in the Consulting Agreement may be offset by any amounts you owe to the Company or any
of its subsidiaries or affiliates. 
  
 Your signature below will
also constitute confirmation that you have (i) made such waivers, releases, agreements and confirmation in consideration for any severance payment and other arrangements set forth in the Consulting Agreement, (ii) been given at least 21 days within

of Colorado, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
