<P><FONT SIZE=2>Dear
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Boise
Cascade Corporation (the "Company") considers it essential to the best interests of its stockholders to foster the continuous employment of key management personnel in the event a
change in control of the Company is threatened or occurs. In this regard, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") recognizes that the possibility of a change in control may exist and that
the uncertainty and questions which this possibility may raise among management could result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its
stockholders. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Company's management, including
yourself, to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of the possibility of a change in control of the Company, although no such change is now contemplated. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
order to induce you to remain in the employ of the Company in the face of a change in control of the Company, the Company agrees that you shall receive the severance benefits set
forth in this letter agreement if your employment with the Company is terminated before or after a "change in control of the Company" (as defined in Section&nbsp;2) under the circumstances described
below. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT

Company dated&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;. This amendment is effective on the date hereof and shall continue in effect through
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;]; provided that on January&nbsp;1,
[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;] and on each January&nbsp;1 thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended so as to terminate on the 3rd anniversary of such date,
unless, not later than September&nbsp;30 of the preceding year, the Company shall have given notice not to extend this Agreement. However, if a change in control of the Company occurs during the
term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of not less than 24&nbsp;months after the month in which the change in control of the Company occurred. </FONT></P>

additional Gross-up Payment in respect of the excess (including any interest, penalties, or additions payable by you with respect to the Excise Tax) within 5 business days following the
