Private Offering It is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or it is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Securities Act. It acknowledges that the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption to “Accredited Investors” within the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law or a non-U.S. Person under Regulation S.
The Offering In accordance with the plan of conversion adopted by its Board of Directors (the "Plan"), the Company will offer and sell up to 714,200 shares of its common stock, par value, $.01 per share (the "Shares" or "Common Stock"), in a subscription offering (the "Subscription Offering") to (1) depositors of the Bank with account balances of $50.00 or more as of December 31, 1998 ("Eligible Account Holders"), (2) depositors of the Bank with account balances of $50.00 or more as of September 30, 2001 ("Supplemental Eligible Account Holders"), (3) depositors of the Bank as of the close of business on ___________, who continue as depositors as of the Special Meeting who are not Eligible Account Holders or Supplemental Eligible Account Holders ("Other Members"), and (4) employees, officers and directors of the Bank to the extent they are not Eligible Account Holders, Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, or Other Members. To the extent Shares remain unsold in the Subscription Offering, the Company is offering for sale in a direct community offering (the "Community Offering" and when referred to together with the Subscription Offering, the "Subscription and Community Offering") the Shares not so subscribed for or ordered in the Subscription Offering to members of the general public, with preference given to natural persons residing in the Illinois county of DuPage ("Other Subscribers"), (all such offerees being referred to in the aggregate as "Eligible Offerees"). It is anticipated that shares not subscribed for in the Subscription and Community Offering will be offered to certain members of the general public on a best efforts basis through a selected dealers arrangement (the "Public Offering") (the Subscription Offering, Community Offering and Public Offering are collectively referred to as the "Offering"). It is acknowledged that the purchase of Shares in the Offering is subject to the maximum and minimum purchase limitations as described in the Plan and that the Company and the Bank may reject, in whole or in part, any orders received in the Community Offering or Public Offering. The Company will issue the Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the "Purchase Price").
Private Offering by the Company Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any person other than the Purchasers and not more than five other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.
Public Offering of the Offered Shares The Representatives hereby advise the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer for sale to the public, initially on the terms set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, their respective portions of the Offered Shares as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Representatives, in their sole judgment, have determined is advisable and practicable.

Each Investor’s pro rata share is equal to the ratio of (a) the number of the Company’s Ordinary Shares (including all Ordinary Shares issuable or issued upon conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of outstanding warrants or options) of which such Investor is deemed to be a holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Equity Securities to (b) the total number of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares (including all Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of any outstanding warrants or options) immediately prior to the issuance of the Equity Securities. The term “Equity Securities” shall mean (i) any Ordinary Shares, Preferred Shares or other security of the Company, (ii) any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, with or without consideration, any Ordinary Shares, Preferred Shares or other equity security (including any option to purchase such a convertible security), (iii) any equity security carrying any warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase any Ordinary Shares, Preferred Shares or other security or (iv) any such warrant or right.
