In the event of failure to perform duties as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, such employee will be entitled to continue to receive his or her full base salary until such time as his or her employment is terminated due to “disability” (as defined below).

“Cause” means (i) an employee’s willful and continued failure to substantially perform his or her duties with Boise Cascade, L.L.C. (other than failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, or actual or anticipated failure resulting from termination for good reason), after a demand for substantial performance is delivered by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that the employee has not substantially performed his or her duties, or (ii) an employee’s willful engagement in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Boise Cascade, L.L.C., monetarily or otherwise.
“Disability” means that if, as a result of an employee’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, he or she is absent from his or her duties with Boise Cascade, L.L.C. on a full-time basis for six consecutive months, and within 30 days after written notice of termination is given such employee has not returned to the full-time performance of his or her duties, such employee’s employment may be terminated for “Disability.”
“Good reason” means the failure of Boise Cascade, L.L.C. to require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Boise Cascade, L.L.C. to expressly assume and agree to perform the severance agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Boise Cascade, L.L.C. would be required to perform if no succession had taken place, prior to the effectiveness of any succession which occurs during the term.
