TO
PPL CORPORATION
INCENTIVE
COMPENSATION PLAN FOR KEY
EMPLOYEES
WHEREAS, PPL Corporation,
(“PPL”) has adopted the PPL Corporation Incentive
Compensation Plan for Key Employees (“Plan”), effective
January 1, 1997; and
WHEREAS, the Plan was amended and
restated effective January 1, 2003, and subsequently amended by
Amendment No. 1, 2 and 3; and
WHEREAS, PPL desires to further
amend the Plan;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby
amended as follows:
I. Effective December 1, 2007,
Sections 7, 8 and 10 are amended to read:
SECTION 7. RESTRICTED
STOCK.
B. Restriction Period.
At the time a Restricted
Stock or Restricted Stock Units Award is granted, CLC shall
establish a Restriction Period applicable to such Award which shall
be not less than three years. Each Restricted Stock or
Restricted Stock Units Award may have a different Restriction
Period. All Restricted Stock Units granted after
December 31, 2004 shall have a mandatory Restriction Period, if the
Restriction Period has not lapsed as of the day prior to a
termination of employment, of six calendar months from the day of
termination of employment.
Notwithstanding the other provisions of this
Section 7: (i) in the event of a Change in Control, the
Restriction Periods on all Restricted Stock Awards previously
granted shall lapse and in the event of a "Change in ownership or
effective control" as defined by Treasury Regulations under Code
Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v), the Restriction Periods on all Restricted
Stock Units shall lapse, and (ii) apart from a Change in Control,
CLC is authorized in its sole discretion to accelerate the time at
which any or all of the restrictions on all or any part of a
Restricted Stock Award shall lapse or to remove any or all of such
restrictions whenever CLC may decide that changes in tax or other
laws or other circumstances arising after the granting of a
Restricted Stock Award make such action appropriate.
C. Forfeiture or Payout of
Award
(v) Conversions between Restricted
Stock and Restricted Stock Units. CLC has the discretion
to convert with the consent of the Participant any or all
Restricted Stock into Restricted Stock Units of equivalent value,
and to convert any or all Restricted Stock Units into Restricted
Stock of equivalent value, prior to the end of the applicable
Restriction Period, but a conversion of Restricted Stock into
Restricted Stock Units shall not be implemented less than 12 months
prior to the end of the applicable Restriction Period, and the new
Restriction Period shall lapse at least 5 years after the end of
the old Restriction Period. Upon any such
