                (c)           Reimbursement of Expenses.  The Company shall reimburse ▇▇▇▇▇▇ for all business expenses properly documented, including without limitation, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ legal fees incurred in the preparation of this Agreement.  Any such payments shall be made no later than 2 ½ months after the end of the calendar year in which the expense was incurred.

                (d)           Aircraft.  ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled to use of the Company’s corporate aircraft at the Company’s expense, provided that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be responsible for all individual income taxes resulting from his use of the aircraft for non-business travel.

                (h)           Return of Compensation under Section 304 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a restatement of financial results by the Company, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors shall determine (after reasonable notice to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and an opportunity for ▇▇▇▇▇▇, together with his legal counsel, to be heard before the Audit Committee) whether or not repayment of any compensation is required under Section 304 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.  If the Audit Committee determines that such repayment is required, the Committee shall make a demand for repayment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation, and any profits realized from the sale of TCF stock or other TCF securities, which are required to be returned to the Company as a result of Section 304 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.  ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly tender such repayment unless he disputes the findings of the Audit Committee.

                5.             Covenant Not to Compete; Non-Solicitation Covenant.

                                (a)           Covenant Not to Compete.  During the term of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that he will not directly or indirectly substantially compete with TCF Financial, TCF National Bank, TCF National Bank Arizona or their respective subsidiaries in the Relevant Market.  The “Relevant Market” is financial businesses located in the States of Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado and Wisconsin, and the Chicago metropolitan area.

                                (b)           Non-Solicitation Covenant.  During the term of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that, except with the prior written permission of the Board of Directors of TCF Financial, he will not offer to hire, entice away, or in any manner attempt to persuade any officer, employee, or agent of TCF Financial, TCF National Bank or TCF National Bank Arizona or any of their subsidiaries to discontinue his or her relationship with TCF Financial, TCF National Bank, TCF National Bank Arizona or any of their subsidiaries nor will he directly or indirectly solicit, divert, take away or attempt to solicit any business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries as to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has acquired any knowledge during the term of his employment with the Company or his service as a director of TCF Financial.

                                (c)           Extension of Terms of Covenant Not to Compete and Non-Solicitation Covenant.  In consideration for the acceleration of benefits under the Award Agreements upon a Change in Control as defined in the TCF Incentive Stock Program, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ obligations under paragraphs 5(a) and 5(b) shall be extended for three (3) years following any such Change in Control; provided, however, that during such extended period ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may be permitted to engage in activities  otherwise prohibited by paragraphs 5 (a) and 5 (b) with the prior written permission of the Board of Directors of the Company, which shall not be withheld if the nature and extent of such activity would be immaterial or inconsequential to the Company.

3

                (d)           Remedies.  If ▇▇▇▇▇▇ commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this paragraph 5, the Company shall have the right of specific performance in addition to any rights and remedies otherwise available at law or in equity.

                6.             Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

                (a)           Gross-Up Payment.  Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment, distribution or benefit made or provided by the Company (or any successor thereto) to or for the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (whether pursuant to this Agreement, the Award Agreements or otherwise) (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall pay ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in cash an amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that after payment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including but not limited to income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and any additional Excise Tax, imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ retains (after payment of such taxes, interest and penalties) an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Payments.

                (b)           Determination of Gross-Up Payment.  Subject to paragraph (c) below, all determinations required to be made under this Agreement or under the Award Agreements, including whether a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, shall be made by the firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company to audit its financial statements for the year immediately preceding a Change in Control (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ within thirty (30) days after a Payment is made.  In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required under this paragraph (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the “Accounting Firm”).  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with the work it performs pursuant to this paragraph shall be promptly paid by the Company.  A Gross-Up Payment (as determined pursuant to this paragraph) shall be paid by the Company to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination.  If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, it shall furnish ▇▇▇▇▇▇ with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or a similar penalty.  Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇.  As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”).  In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to paragraph (c) below, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is thereafter required to make a payment of Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall promptly determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be paid by the Company to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ within five (5) days after such determination.

4

                (c)           Contest.  ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall notify the Company in writing of any claim made by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the Company to pay a Gross-Up Payment.  Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after ▇▇▇▇▇▇ knows of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid.  ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).  If the Company notifies ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall:

                                                                (i)            give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim;

                                                                (ii)           take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇;

                                                                (iii)          cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim;

                                                                (iv)          permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold ▇▇▇▇▇▇ harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax, including interest and penalties with respect thereto, imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.  Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to pay the tax, interest and penalties claimed and ▇▇▇ for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to pay such claim and ▇▇▇ for a refund, the Company shall advance, on an interest-free basis, the amount of such payment to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ together with any Excise Tax and income taxes imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount.  Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

5

                (d)           If, after the receipt by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of paragraph (c)) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after any income or other taxes applicable thereto and assessed on ▇▇▇▇▇▇ have been paid by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ from such refund).  If, after the receipt by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c), a determination is made that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

                (e)           Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  The arrangements described in this Agreement and the Award Agreements are intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent such arrangements are subject to that law.  The parties agree that they will negotiate in good faith regarding amendments necessary to bring this Agreement into compliance with the terms of that Section or an exemption therefrom as interpreted by guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service.  The parties further agree that to the extent any part of this Agreement fails to qualify for exemption from or satisfy the requirements of Section 409A, the affected arrangement may be operated in compliance with Section 409A pending amendment to the extent authorized by the Internal Revenue Service.  In such circumstances Company will administer this Agreement in a manner which adheres as closely as possible to the existing terms and intent of the Agreement while complying with Section 409A.  This paragraph does not restrict Company’s rights (including, without limitation, the right to amend or terminate) with respect to this Agreement to the extent such rights are reserved under the terms of this Agreement.

                7.             Attorney’s Fees.  In the event of a dispute between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ relating to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ services hereunder or the terms or performance of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly pay ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ reasonable expenses of attorney’s fees and expenses in connection with such dispute upon delivery of periodic ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for same, provided that (i) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly repay all amounts paid under this paragraph 7 at the conclusion of such dispute if the resolution thereof includes a finding that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ did not act in good faith in the matter in dispute or in the dispute proceeding itself, and (ii) no claim for expenses of attorney’s fees and expenses shall be submitted by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ unless made in writing to the Board of Directors within one year of the performance of the services for which such claim is made.

                8.             Other Benefits.  The benefits provided under this Agreement shall, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided herein, be in addition to, and not in derogation or diminution of, any benefits that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his beneficiary may be entitled to receive under any other plan or program now or hereafter maintained by the Company or TCF Subsidiaries.

                9.             Successors.  The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, to expressly assume and agree to perform its obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to

6

perform them if no succession had taken place unless, in the opinion of legal counsel mutually acceptable to the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇, such obligations have been assumed by the successor as a matter of law.  ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ rights under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ legal representative or other successors in interest, but shall not otherwise be assignable or transferable.

                10.           Other Agreements.  This Agreement supersedes and replaces effective the date hereof all prior agreements or understandings relating to the terms of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ service with the Company, including the Chairman’s Agreement and the Supplement, except as set forth herein.  Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement does not supersede or replace any agreement between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ pursuant to any plans or programs of the Company, including any stock option agreement, restricted stock agreement or supplemental retirement agreement.

                11.           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota.

                12.           Parties to this Amended and Restated Agreement.  TCF National Bank was a party to the Chairman’s Agreement and the Supplement but will not be a party to this Amended and Restated Agreement except to indicate by its signature below that it has consented to its removal as a party.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first written above.
