Exhibit 10.4 (d)
BOK FINANCIAL CORPORATION

409A Deferred Compensation Agreement

This Deferred Compensation Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this 31st day of December, 2004 (the "Agreement Date") between the following parties (the "Parties"):

i. Stanley A. Lybarger, an individual residing in Tulsa, Oklahoma ("Executive"); and,

ii. BOK Financial Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation ("BOKF").

Recitals

Whereas, Executive and BOKF desire to enter into a Deferred Compensation Agreement that is compliant with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, as codified in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code").

Now, therefore:

The Executive and BOKF, in exchange for the promises hereafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which the Parties hereby acknowledge), and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1) Purpose of This Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is as follows:

a) Executive is employed by BOKF as its Chief Executive Officer.

b) Executive may hereafter be issued performance or restricted shares (as provided, from time to time, in the BOKF Executive Compensation Plans) and/or awarded options (the "Options") to acquire Common Stock of BOKF and has heretofore been awarded options which, as of the Agreement Date, have not vested or been exercised, as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such performance shares, restricted shares, and shares of Common Stock of BOKF issued upon exercise of the Options, being hereinafter collectively called the "Shares").

c) This Agreement is entered into in order to permit Executive to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Shares otherwise payable to Executive upon the exercise of Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares issued to Executive.

d) This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions on which Executive may defer the receipt of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares.

2) Election to Defer Receipt of Shares. The Executive may, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Executive (without any obligation to provide an explanation for the exercise of such discretion), elect to defer the receipt of Shares upon exercise of Options or the vesting of performance or restricted shares, on the following terms and conditions:

a) Executive shall not less than six months prior to the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares or the intended date of exercise of any of the Options, as applicable, give written notice (the "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer the receipt of Shares or the vesting of performance or restricted shares (the "Election").

b) Each Notice shall set forth:

i) the name of the BOKF Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Options were awarded, the date on which the Options were awarded (the "Stock Option Award Date"), the number of Shares under option to be exercised; and

ii) the number of Shares which are performance shares or restricted shares which Executive elects to defer.

c) Executive agrees to use shares of BOKF Common Stock previously owned by him for at least six months to satisfy the exercise price of the Options, rather than the cash or broker assisted exercise methods.

d) In the event Executive elects to defer the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, the Executive shall assign and deliver such shares to BOKF together with the Notice of deferral.

e) The Election shall be irrevocable.

3) Special BOKF Liability Account.

a) Upon the exercise of an Option for which an Election has previously been made by the Executive pursuant to Section 2 and/or the deferral or vesting of Shares which are restricted shares or performance shares assigned and delivered to BOKF in accordance with Section 2(d), BOKF shall establish a special BOKF Liability Account ("Special Account").

i) The Special Account shall reflect the number of BOKF Shares for which Options were exercised by the Executive, the number of BOKF Shares which are performance shares and restricted shares, and the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus, which Executive has elected to defer. The Executive shall pay any FICA taxes that may be due in one or the other of the following ways:

(1) Executive shall pay FICA in cash; or,

(2) In the case of the deferral of BOKF Shares, the Special Account shall be debited that amount of BOKF Shares necessary to pay FICA. Executive acknowledges that, in the event Executive elects the provision of this sub-paragraph (2), the value of the debited shares shall not be deferred under this Agreement and shall be taxable income to the Executive, subject to federal and state income tax and withholding.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the number of BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account and related current value of such BOKF Shares to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not, in fact, own the BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account.

b) If there are any changes in the capitalization of BOKF (or of any Alternative Investment, as hereafter defined) affecting the number or kind (after the recapitalization) of issued and outstanding shares of BOKF Common Stock (or the shares of any Alternative Investment) existing immediately prior to the change in capitalization, whether such changes have been occasioned by reorganization, combination of shares, declaration of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, reclassification or recapitalization of such stock, the merger or consolidation of BOKF (or any Alternative Investment) with some other corporation or other similar transaction, then the number and kind of shares reflected in the Special Account shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the number and kind of shares the Executive would have owned had the Executive actually owned the BOKF Shares (or shares of Alternative Investment) reflected in the Special Account on the date of such changes.

c) On the Distribution Date, BOKF shall comply with the provisions described in section 5:

4) Special Diversified Liability Account.

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF(not less than six months following the date of such retirement) or his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination); provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

b) If BOKF, in its sole discretion, actually holds BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invests BOKF funds in Alternative Investments, the Executive shall have no right or interest therein.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.

11) Miscellaneous Provisions. The following miscellaneous provisions shall apply to this Agreement:

a) All notices or advices required or permitted to be given by or pursuant to this Agreement, shall be given in writing. All such notices and advices shall be (i) delivered personally, (ii) delivered by facsimile or delivered by U.S. Registered or Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested mail, or

i. Steven G. Bradshaw, an individual residing in Tulsa, Oklahoma ("Executive"); and,

ii. BOK Financial Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation ("BOKF").

Recitals

Whereas, Executive and BOKF desire to enter into a Deferred Compensation Agreement that is compliant with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, as codified in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code").

Now, therefore:

The Executive and BOKF, in exchange for the promises hereafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which the Parties hereby acknowledge), and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1) Purpose of This Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is as follows:

a) Executive is employed by BOKF as its Senior Executive Vice President.

i) Executive may hereafter be issued performance or restricted shares (as provided, from time to time, in the BOKF Executive Compensation Plans) and/or awarded options (the "Options") to acquire Common Stock of BOKF and has heretofore been awarded options which, as of the Agreement Date, have not vested or been exercised, as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such performance shares, restricted shares, and shares of Common Stock of BOKF issued upon exercise of the Options, being hereinafter collectively called the "Shares").

b) Executive may hereafter be issued an annual incentive bonus in respect of calendar year 2004, payable in March 2005 pursuant to the BOKF Executive Compensation Plan (the "2004 Annual Bonus").

c) This Agreement is entered into in order to permit Executive to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Shares otherwise payable to Executive upon the exercise of Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares issued to Executive and/or the receipt of all or a portion of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

d) This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions on which Executive may defer the receipt of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, and/or the receipt of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

2) Election to Defer Receipt of Shares. The Executive may, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Executive (without any obligation to provide an explanation for the exercise of such discretion), elect to defer the receipt of Shares upon exercise of Options or the vesting of performance or restricted shares, on the following terms and conditions:

a) Executive shall:
i) not less than six months prior to the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares or the intended date of exercise of any of the Options, as applicable, give written notice (the "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer the receipt of Shares or the vesting of performance or restricted shares (the "Election"); and/or,

ii) on or before March 15, 2005, give written notice (also called a "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer receipt of some or all of the 2004 Annual Bonus (also called an "Election").

b) Each Notice shall set forth:

i) the name of the BOKF Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Options were awarded, the date on which the Options were awarded (the "Stock Option Award Date"), the number of Shares under option to be exercised;

ii) the number of Shares which are performance shares or restricted shares which Executive elects to defer; and

iii) the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus which the Executive elects to defer; and,

iv) whether the deferral shall be until retirement or until a date, not earlier than five years from the Notice, which executive shall specify in the Notice (the "Deferral Date")

c) Executive agrees to use shares of BOKF Common Stock previously owned by him for at least six months to satisfy the exercise price of the Options, rather than the cash or broker assisted exercise methods.

d) In the event Executive elects to defer the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, the Executive shall assign and deliver such shares to BOKF together with the Notice of deferral.

e) The Election shall be irrevocable.

3) Special BOKF Liability Account.

a) Upon the exercise of an Option for which an Election has previously been made by the Executive pursuant to Section 2 and/or the deferral or vesting of Shares which are restricted shares or performance shares assigned and delivered to BOKF in accordance with Section 2(d), BOKF shall establish a special BOKF Liability Account ("Special Account").

i) The Special Account shall reflect the number of BOKF Shares for which Options were exercised by the Executive, the number of BOKF Shares which are performance shares and restricted shares, and the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus, which Executive has elected to defer. The Executive shall pay any FICA taxes that may be due in one or the other of the following ways:

(1) Executive shall pay FICA in cash; or,

(2) In the case of the deferral of BOKF Shares, the Special Account shall be debited that amount of BOKF Shares necessary to pay FICA. Executive acknowledges that, in the event Executive elects the provision of this sub-paragraph (2), the value of the debited shares shall not be deferred under this Agreement and shall be taxable income to the Executive, subject to federal and state income tax and withholding.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the number of BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account and related current value of such BOKF Shares to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not, in fact, own the BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account.

b) If there are any changes in the capitalization of BOKF (or of any Alternative Investment, as hereafter defined) affecting the number or kind (after the recapitalization) of issued and outstanding shares of BOKF Common Stock (or the shares of any Alternative Investment) existing immediately prior to the change in capitalization, whether such changes have been occasioned by reorganization, combination of shares, declaration of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, reclassification or recapitalization of such stock, the merger or consolidation of BOKF (or any Alternative Investment) with some other corporation or other similar transaction, then the number and kind of shares reflected in the Special Account shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the number and kind of shares the Executive would have owned had the Executive actually owned the BOKF Shares (or shares of Alternative Investment) reflected in the Special Account on the date of such changes.

c) On the Distribution Date, BOKF shall comply with the provisions described in section 5:

4) Special Diversified Liability Account.

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF (not less than six months following the date of such retirement), his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination), or the Deferral Date; provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.

409A Deferred Compensation Agreement

This Deferred Compensation Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this 31st day of December, 2004 (the "Agreement Date") between the following parties (the "Parties"):

i. William Jeffrey Pickryl, an individual residing in Plano, Texas ("Executive"); and,

ii. BOK Financial Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation ("BOKF").

Recitals

Whereas, Executive and BOKF desire to enter into a Deferred Compensation Agreement that is compliant with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, as codified in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code").

Now, therefore:

The Executive and BOKF, in exchange for the promises hereafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which the Parties hereby acknowledge), and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1) Purpose of This Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is as follows:

a) Executive is employed by BOKF as its Senior Executive Vice President.

i) Executive may hereafter be issued performance or restricted shares (as provided, from time to time, in the BOKF Executive Compensation Plans) and/or awarded options (the "Options") to acquire Common Stock of BOKF and has heretofore been awarded options which, as of the Agreement Date, have not vested or been exercised, as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such performance shares, restricted shares, and shares of Common Stock of BOKF issued upon exercise of the Options, being hereinafter collectively called the "Shares").

b) Executive may hereafter be issued an annual incentive bonus in respect of calendar year 2004, payable in March 2005 pursuant to the BOKF Executive Compensation Plan (the "2004 Annual Bonus").

c) This Agreement is entered into in order to permit Executive to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Shares otherwise payable to Executive upon the exercise of Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares issued to Executive and/or the receipt of all or a portion of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

d) This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions on which Executive may defer the receipt of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, and/or the receipt of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

2) Election to Defer Receipt of Shares. The Executive may, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Executive (without any obligation to provide an explanation for the exercise of such discretion), elect to defer the receipt of Shares upon exercise of Options or the vesting of performance or restricted shares, on the following terms and conditions:

a) Executive shall:
i) not less than six months prior to the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares or the intended date of exercise of any of the Options, as applicable, give written notice (the "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer the receipt of Shares or the vesting of performance or restricted shares (the "Election"); and/or,

ii) on or before March 15, 2005, give written notice (also called a "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer receipt of some or all of the 2004 Annual Bonus (also called an "Election").

b) Each Notice shall set forth:

i) the name of the BOKF Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Options were awarded, the date on which the Options were awarded (the "Stock Option Award Date"), the number of Shares under option to be exercised;

ii) the number of Shares which are performance shares or restricted shares which Executive elects to defer; and

iii) the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus which the Executive elects to defer; and,

iv) whether the deferral shall be until retirement or until a date, not earlier than five years from the Notice, which executive shall specify in the Notice (the "Deferral Date")

c) Executive agrees to use shares of BOKF Common Stock previously owned by him for at least six months to satisfy the exercise price of the Options, rather than the cash or broker assisted exercise methods.

d) In the event Executive elects to defer the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, the Executive shall assign and deliver such shares to BOKF together with the Notice of deferral.

e) The Election shall be irrevocable.

3) Special BOKF Liability Account.

a) Upon the exercise of an Option for which an Election has previously been made by the Executive pursuant to Section 2 and/or the deferral or vesting of Shares which are restricted shares or performance shares assigned and delivered to BOKF in accordance with Section 2(d), BOKF shall establish a special BOKF Liability Account ("Special Account").

i) The Special Account shall reflect the number of BOKF Shares for which Options were exercised by the Executive, the number of BOKF Shares which are performance shares and restricted shares, and the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus, which Executive has elected to defer. The Executive shall pay any FICA taxes that may be due in one or the other of the following ways:

(1) Executive shall pay FICA in cash; or,

(2) In the case of the deferral of BOKF Shares, the Special Account shall be debited that amount of BOKF Shares necessary to pay FICA. Executive acknowledges that, in the event Executive elects the provision of this sub-paragraph (2), the value of the debited shares shall not be deferred under this Agreement and shall be taxable income to the Executive, subject to federal and state income tax and withholding.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the number of BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account and related current value of such BOKF Shares to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not, in fact, own the BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account.

b) If there are any changes in the capitalization of BOKF (or of any Alternative Investment, as hereafter defined) affecting the number or kind (after the recapitalization) of issued and outstanding shares of BOKF Common Stock (or the shares of any Alternative Investment) existing immediately prior to the change in capitalization, whether such changes have been occasioned by reorganization, combination of shares, declaration of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, reclassification or recapitalization of such stock, the merger or consolidation of BOKF (or any Alternative Investment) with some other corporation or other similar transaction, then the number and kind of shares reflected in the Special Account shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the number and kind of shares the Executive would have owned had the Executive actually owned the BOKF Shares (or shares of Alternative Investment) reflected in the Special Account on the date of such changes.

c) On the Distribution Date, BOKF shall comply with the provisions described in section 5:

4) Special Diversified Liability Account.

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF (not less than six months following the date of such retirement), his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination), or the Deferral Date; provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

b) If BOKF, in its sole discretion, actually holds BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invests BOKF funds in Alternative Investments, the Executive shall have no right or interest therein.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.

11) Miscellaneous Provisions. The following miscellaneous provisions shall apply to this Agreement:

a) All notices or advices required or permitted to be given by or pursuant to this Agreement, shall be given in writing. All such notices and advices shall be (i) delivered personally, (ii) delivered by facsimile or delivered by U.S. Registered or Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested mail, or

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF (not less than six months following the date of such retirement), his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination), or the Deferral Date; provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

b) If BOKF, in its sole discretion, actually holds BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invests BOKF funds in Alternative Investments, the Executive shall have no right or interest therein.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.

11) Miscellaneous Provisions. The following miscellaneous provisions shall apply to this Agreement:

a) All notices or advices required or permitted to be given by or pursuant to this Agreement, shall be given in writing. All such notices and advices shall be (i) delivered personally, (ii) delivered by facsimile or delivered by U.S. Registered or Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested mail, or

409A Deferred Compensation Agreement

This Deferred Compensation Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this 31st day of December, 2004 (the "Agreement Date") between the following parties (the "Parties"):

i. Mark W. Funke, an individual residing in Edmond, Oklahoma ("Executive"); and,

ii. BOK Financial Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation ("BOKF").

Recitals

Whereas, Executive and BOKF desire to enter into a Deferred Compensation Agreement that is compliant with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, as codified in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code").

Now, therefore:

The Executive and BOKF, in exchange for the promises hereafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which the Parties hereby acknowledge), and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1) Purpose of This Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is as follows:

a) Executive is employed by BOKF as its Senior Executive Vice President.

i) Executive may hereafter be issued performance or restricted shares (as provided, from time to time, in the BOKF Executive Compensation Plans) and/or awarded options (the "Options") to acquire Common Stock of BOKF and has heretofore been awarded options which, as of the Agreement Date, have not vested or been exercised, as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (such performance shares, restricted shares, and shares of Common Stock of BOKF issued upon exercise of the Options, being hereinafter collectively called the "Shares").

b) Executive may hereafter be issued an annual incentive bonus in respect of calendar year 2004, payable in March 2005 pursuant to the BOKF Executive Compensation Plan (the "2004 Annual Bonus").

c) This Agreement is entered into in order to permit Executive to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Shares otherwise payable to Executive upon the exercise of Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares issued to Executive and/or the receipt of all or a portion of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

d) This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions on which Executive may defer the receipt of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Options or the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, and/or the receipt of the 2004 Annual Bonus.

2) Election to Defer Receipt of Shares. The Executive may, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Executive (without any obligation to provide an explanation for the exercise of such discretion), elect to defer the receipt of Shares upon exercise of Options or the vesting of performance or restricted shares, on the following terms and conditions:

a) Executive shall:
i) not less than six months prior to the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares or the intended date of exercise of any of the Options, as applicable, give written notice (the "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer the receipt of Shares or the vesting of performance or restricted shares (the "Election"); and/or,

ii) on or before March 15, 2005, give written notice (also called a "Notice") to BOKF that Executive elects to defer receipt of some or all of the 2004 Annual Bonus (also called an "Election").

b) Each Notice shall set forth:

i) the name of the BOKF Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Options were awarded, the date on which the Options were awarded (the "Stock Option Award Date"), the number of Shares under option to be exercised;

ii) the number of Shares which are performance shares or restricted shares which Executive elects to defer; and

iii) the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus which the Executive elects to defer; and,

iv) whether the deferral shall be until retirement or until a date, not earlier than five years from the Notice, which executive shall specify in the Notice (the "Deferral Date")

c) Executive agrees to use shares of BOKF Common Stock previously owned by him for at least six months to satisfy the exercise price of the Options, rather than the cash or broker assisted exercise methods.

d) In the event Executive elects to defer the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, the Executive shall assign and deliver such shares to BOKF together with the Notice of deferral.

e) The Election shall be irrevocable.

3) Special BOKF Liability Account.

a) Upon the exercise of an Option for which an Election has previously been made by the Executive pursuant to Section 2 and/or the deferral or vesting of Shares which are restricted shares or performance shares assigned and delivered to BOKF in accordance with Section 2(d), BOKF shall establish a special BOKF Liability Account ("Special Account").

i) The Special Account shall reflect the number of BOKF Shares for which Options were exercised by the Executive, the number of BOKF Shares which are performance shares and restricted shares, and the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus, which Executive has elected to defer. The Executive shall pay any FICA taxes that may be due in one or the other of the following ways:

(1) Executive shall pay FICA in cash; or,

(2) In the case of the deferral of BOKF Shares, the Special Account shall be debited that amount of BOKF Shares necessary to pay FICA. Executive acknowledges that, in the event Executive elects the provision of this sub-paragraph (2), the value of the debited shares shall not be deferred under this Agreement and shall be taxable income to the Executive, subject to federal and state income tax and withholding.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the number of BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account and related current value of such BOKF Shares to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not, in fact, own the BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account.

b) If there are any changes in the capitalization of BOKF (or of any Alternative Investment, as hereafter defined) affecting the number or kind (after the recapitalization) of issued and outstanding shares of BOKF Common Stock (or the shares of any Alternative Investment) existing immediately prior to the change in capitalization, whether such changes have been occasioned by reorganization, combination of shares, declaration of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, reclassification or recapitalization of such stock, the merger or consolidation of BOKF (or any Alternative Investment) with some other corporation or other similar transaction, then the number and kind of shares reflected in the Special Account shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the number and kind of shares the Executive would have owned had the Executive actually owned the BOKF Shares (or shares of Alternative Investment) reflected in the Special Account on the date of such changes.

c) On the Distribution Date, BOKF shall comply with the provisions described in section 5:

4) Special Diversified Liability Account.

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF(not less than six months following the date of such retirement), his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination), or the Deferral Date; provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

b) If BOKF, in its sole discretion, actually holds BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invests BOKF funds in Alternative Investments, the Executive shall have no right or interest therein.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.

b) Each Notice shall set forth:

i) the name of the BOKF Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Options were awarded, the date on which the Options were awarded (the "Stock Option Award Date"), the number of Shares under option to be exercised;

ii) the number of Shares which are performance shares or restricted shares which Executive elects to defer; and

iii) the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus which the Executive elects to defer; and,

iv) whether the deferral shall be until retirement or until a date, not earlier than five years from the Notice, which executive shall specify in the Notice (the "Deferral Date")

c) Executive agrees to use shares of BOKF Common Stock previously owned by him for at least six months to satisfy the exercise price of the Options, rather than the cash or broker assisted exercise methods.

d) In the event Executive elects to defer the vesting of performance shares or restricted shares, the Executive shall assign and deliver such shares to BOKF together with the Notice of deferral.

e) The Election shall be irrevocable.

3) Special BOKF Liability Account.

a) Upon the exercise of an Option for which an Election has previously been made by the Executive pursuant to Section 2 and/or the deferral or vesting of Shares which are restricted shares or performance shares assigned and delivered to BOKF in accordance with Section 2(d), BOKF shall establish a special BOKF Liability Account ("Special Account").

i) The Special Account shall reflect the number of BOKF Shares for which Options were exercised by the Executive, the number of BOKF Shares which are performance shares and restricted shares, and the amount of 2004 Annual Bonus, which Executive has elected to defer. The Executive shall pay any FICA taxes that may be due in one or the other of the following ways:

(1) Executive shall pay FICA in cash; or,

(2) In the case of the deferral of BOKF Shares, the Special Account shall be debited that amount of BOKF Shares necessary to pay FICA. Executive acknowledges that, in the event Executive elects the provision of this sub-paragraph (2), the value of the debited shares shall not be deferred under this Agreement and shall be taxable income to the Executive, subject to federal and state income tax and withholding.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the number of BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account and related current value of such BOKF Shares to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not, in fact, own the BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account.

b) If there are any changes in the capitalization of BOKF (or of any Alternative Investment, as hereafter defined) affecting the number or kind (after the recapitalization) of issued and outstanding shares of BOKF Common Stock (or the shares of any Alternative Investment) existing immediately prior to the change in capitalization, whether such changes have been occasioned by reorganization, combination of shares, declaration of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, reclassification or recapitalization of such stock, the merger or consolidation of BOKF (or any Alternative Investment) with some other corporation or other similar transaction, then the number and kind of shares reflected in the Special Account shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the number and kind of shares the Executive would have owned had the Executive actually owned the BOKF Shares (or shares of Alternative Investment) reflected in the Special Account on the date of such changes.

c) On the Distribution Date, BOKF shall comply with the provisions described in section 5:

4) Special Diversified Liability Account.

a) At any time after the exercise of an Option as described in Section 2 and before the Distribution Date but no more than once each calendar quarter, the Executive may elect to convert (the "Conversion") all or a portion of the value of the Special Account into a credit value in the Special Account equal to the value so converted (less applicable FICA taxes). The converted value ("Converted Value") shall be represented by one or more Alternative Investments (as hereafter defined) selected by Executive.

b) As a condition of a Conversion, the Executive shall select one or more of the investment opportunities listed in Appendix A of this Agreement (the "Alternative Investments") to measure the value of the Special Account as if such converted Special Account value had actually been invested in such Alternative Investments.

c) After one or more Conversions:

i) The Special Account shall reflect the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments remaining after each such Conversion and the value thereof from time to time.

ii) BOKF shall periodically (but not less than once each calendar quarter) report the BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and related current value thereof to Executive.

iii) The Special Account shall be for bookkeeping purposes only.

iv) The Executive shall not own the BOKF Shares or Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account and shall have no right to ownership or possession thereof.

v) BOKF may from time to time amend Exhibit A by adding additional investment opportunities to, but not deleting investment opportunities from, the list contained in Appendix A.

5) Distribution Date and Distribution.

a) The Distribution Date for the Special Account shall be a date selected by BOKF between January 15 and March 1 of the year next following the year in which the Executive retires from BOKF (not less than six months following the date of such retirement), his employment with BOKF is terminated for whatever reason (not less than six months following the date of such termination), or the Deferral Date; provided, however, in the event the Executive becomes disabled (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or dies prior to retiring from BOKF or prior to his employment with BOKF having terminated for whatever reason, the Distribution Date shall be a date selected by BOKF not later than 90 calendar days following the date of death; and,

b) If the Executive experiences an unforeseeable emergency (as such term is defined in 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), Executive may request (i) suspension of any deferrals required to be made by Executive and/or
(ii) receive a partial or full payout from the Special Account. The payout shall not exceed the lesser of the Executive's account balance, calculated as if such Executive were receiving a termination benefit, or the amount reasonably needed to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.

c) On the Distribution Date, the Company shall:

i) Pay the value of the Special Account (net of applicable federal and state taxes required to be withheld) to Executive in cash, BOKF Shares, Alternative Investments or a combination thereof, in sole the discretion of BOKF; and,

ii) eliminate the Special Account or, in the case of a Distribution associated with a Deferral Date, reflect any payment out of the Special Account.

d) In the event of the death of the Executive, the distribution provided in the preceding subsection shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries previously designated by the Executive in a writing filed with the Secretary of BOKF or, in the absence of such designation, as provided by Executive in any trust or will and, in the absence of any such trust or will, to Executive's estate.

6) No Executive Interest in Any BOKF Assets.

a) BOKF shall have no obligation to actually hold BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invest funds in any Alternative Investment selected by Executive.

b) If BOKF, in its sole discretion, actually holds BOKF Shares reflected in the Special Account or invests BOKF funds in Alternative Investments, the Executive shall have no right or interest therein.

c) The Executive shall have the right under this Agreement only to the payment in cash of an amount measured by reference to the values of BOKF Shares and Alternative Investments reflected in the Special Account (the "Reference Values"). Such contractual right of the Executive constitutes the Executive a general unsecured creditor of BOKF.

d) BOKF may satisfy its obligation to pay the Referenced Values by making payment in cash or by the delivery of the BOKF Shares and/or Alternative Investments by which the Reference Values are determined.

7) No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) give or be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in the service of BOKF or (ii) modify or be construed as modifying the terms and conditions of employment of Executive with BOKF.

8) Indemnification. Executive hereby agrees to defend and indemnify BOKF, and hold BOKF harmless from, all claims of third parties arising out of the operations of any Alternative Investment selected by Executive that BOKF may actually acquire. BOKF shall not be responsible for any decline in value of the Shares or of any Alternative Investment.

9) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Agreement Date until Executive's retirement or termination; provided, however, either BOKF or Executive may terminate the provisions of Section 2 hereof by notice given on or before November 1 of any year in which event such termination shall be effective as of January 1 immediately following such notice; provided, further, no such termination shall effect the time at which any distribution shall be made to Executive.

10) American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 Compliant. The Agreement is intended to comply in all regards with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. ss. 409A (2004). To the extent that any provision contained herein is determined to be non-compliant, such provision shall be deemed amended so as to comply with Section 409A and the parties hereto shall execute an agreement reflecting such amendment.
