The {sup 12}C({sup 12}C,{sup 14}O) two-proton pick-up reaction has been measured at 211.4 MeV incident energy to study the structure of states of {sup 10}Be up to excitation energies of 12 MeV. The measured partial angular distributions show pronounced oscillatory shapes, which were described by coupled-reaction-channels calculations. Spin-parity assignments could be derived from these characteristic shapes and two definite assignments have been made. The state at 11.8 MeV has been identified as the 4{sup +} member of the ground-state band, and the state at 10.55 MeV is assigned J{sup {pi}}=3{sup -}. At 5.96 MeV only the 1{sub 1}{sup -} member of the known 2{sub 2}{sup +}/1{sub 1}{sup -} doublet is populated. The angular distribution of the peak at 9.50 MeV, which consists of several unresolved states, has been unfolded using contributions from known states at 9.56 MeV, 2{sup +}, and 9.27 MeV, 4{sup -}. The inclusion of a state at 9.4 MeV reported by Daito et al. from the {sup 10}B(t,{sup 3}He){sup 10}Be reaction and tentatively assigned (3{sup +}) improved the fit considerably. A K=2 band is formed with the 2{sub 2}{sup +} state as the band head and the (3{sup +}) state as the second member. The structures of the K{sup {pi}}=0{sup +}{sub 1},2{sup +}{sub 2}, and 1{sub 1}{sup -} bands are discussed.
