ARTICLE I.

THE MERGER

1.01          The Merger.

(a)          General Description.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Article IX) hereof, SBI shall merge with and into Horizon (the “Merger”), and Horizon shall survive the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Indiana pursuant to the provisions of and with the effect provided in the Indiana Business Corporation Law, as amended (the “IBCL”).

(b)          Name, Officers and Directors.  The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be “Horizon Bancorp, Inc.” Its principal office shall be located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. The officers of Horizon serving at the Effective Time shall continue to serve as the officers of the Surviving Corporation, until such time as their successors shall have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal from office. The directors of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time shall be those individuals serving as directors of Horizon at the Effective Time, until such time as their successors have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as a director.

(c)          Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.  The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Horizon in existence at the Effective Time shall remain the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time, until such Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws shall be further amended as provided by applicable law.

(d)          Effect of the Merger.  At the Effective Time, the title to all assets, real estate, and other property owned by SBI shall vest in Surviving Corporation as set forth in Indiana Code Section 23‑1‑40‑6, as amended, without reversion or impairment. At the Effective Time, all liabilities of SBI shall become liabilities of the Surviving Corporation as set forth in Indiana Code Section 23‑1‑40‑6, as amended.

(e)          Integration.  At the Effective Time and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto currently intend to effectuate, or cause to be effectuated, the Merger, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the IBCL, and this Agreement shall also constitute the “plan of merger” pursuant to Indiana Code Section 23‑1‑40‑1. If required, the parties agree to enter into a separate short-form plan of merger evidencing the terms required by Indiana Code Section 23‑1‑40‑1.  The parties agree to cooperate and to take all reasonable actions prior to or following the Effective Time, including executing all requisite documentation, as may be reasonably necessary to effect the Merger in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

1.02          Reservation of Right to Revise Structure.  At Horizon’s election, the Merger may alternatively be structured so that (a) SBI is merged with and into any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon or (b) any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon is merged with and into SBI; provided, however, that no such change shall: (1) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration (as defined in Section 2.01) or the treatment of the holders of common stock, no par value per share, of SBI (the “SBI Common Stock”), (2) prevent the parties from obtaining the opinions of counsel referred to in Sections 7.01(h) and 7.02(h) or otherwise cause the transaction to fail to qualify for the tax treatment described in Section 1.03, or (3) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of such an election, the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement (to the extent such amendment only changes the method of effecting the business combination and does not substantively affect this Agreement or the rights and obligations of the parties or their respective shareholders) in order to reflect such election.

1.03          Tax Free Reorganization.  Horizon and SBI intend for the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) and related sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code, and agree to cooperate and to take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to assure such result.

1.04          Absence of Control.  Subject to any specific provisions of the Agreement, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that neither Horizon nor SBI by reason of this Agreement shall be deemed (until consummation of the transactions contemplated here) to control, directly or indirectly, the other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries (as defined in the introductory paragraphs to Article III and Article IV) and shall not exercise or be deemed to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of such other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries.

1.05          Bank Merger.  The parties will cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to effect the merger of SBTC with and into Horizon Bank (the “Bank Merger”) immediately after the Effective Time of the Merger pursuant to a merger agreement substantially in the form of the Bank Merger Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1.05. At the effective time of the Bank Merger, the separate corporate existence of SBTC will terminate. Horizon Bank will be the surviving bank and will continue its corporate existence under applicable law. The Articles of Incorporation of Horizon Bank, as then in effect, will be the Articles of Incorporation of the surviving bank, the Bylaws of Horizon Bank, as then in effect, will be the Bylaws of the surviving bank, and the Board of Directors and officers of Horizon Bank will continue as the Board of Directors and officers of the surviving bank.

ARTICLE II.

MANNER AND BASIS OF EXCHANGE OF STOCK

2.01          Merger Consideration.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of SBI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held as treasury stock of SBI, and shares held directly or indirectly by Horizon, except shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, if any; collectively, the “Exempt SBI Stock”) shall become and be converted into the right to receive in accordance with this Article II both: (i) 23,907.5 shares of Horizon common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”) (as adjusted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), without par value (the aggregate stock consideration to be paid in the Merger is referred to herein as the “Stock Consideration”), and (ii) $87,417.17 in cash (the aggregate cash consideration to be paid in the Merger is referred to herein as the “Cash Consideration”) (with the aggregate of the Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration being paid for all outstanding shares of SBI Common Stock collectively referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration”).

2.02          Discretion to Adjust Stock Consideration. In the event the parties hereto are unable to obtain the opinions of counsel referred to in Sections 7.01(h) and 7.02(h) or the Merger otherwise fails to qualify for the tax treatment described in Section 1.03, then Horizon may, in its sole discretion, increase the number of shares of SBI Common Stock entitled to receive Stock

Consideration by the minimum amount necessary to enable such tax opinions to be rendered and for the Merger to otherwise qualify for the tax treatment described in Section 1.03.

2.03          Anti-Dilution Adjustments.  If Horizon changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of Horizon common stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time by way of a stock split, stock dividend, or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding Horizon common stock, and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Time, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted so the shareholders of SBI at the Effective Time shall receive, in the aggregate, such number of shares of Horizon common stock representing the same percentage of the outstanding shares of Horizon common stock as would have been represented by the number of shares of Horizon common stock the shareholders of SBI would have received if any of the foregoing actions had not occurred. No adjustment shall be made under this Section solely as a result of Horizon changing its cash dividend levels or issuing additional shares of Horizon common stock provided it receives value for such shares or such shares are issued in connection with a Horizon employee benefit plan or similar plan.

2.04          No Fractional Shares.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no fractional shares of Horizon common stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger; instead, Horizon shall pay to each holder of SBI Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share of Horizon common stock an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction by the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of Horizon’s common stock, rounded to the nearest cent, during the fifteen (15) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the second business day prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that closing sales prices shall only be used for days during which such shares are actually traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

2.05          Exchange Procedures.

(a)          At and after the Effective Time, each physical certificate or book‑entry account statement evidencing outstanding shares of SBI Common Stock (each an “Old Certificate”) (other than the Exempt SBI Stock) shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. At or prior to the Effective Time, Horizon shall reserve a sufficient number of shares of Horizon common stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration.

(b)          As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (and provided SBI has delivered to the Exchange Agent all information which is necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations hereunder), the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of SBI Common Stock a letter of transmittal providing instructions as to the transmittal to the Exchange Agent of the Old Certificates in exchange for the issuance of the Stock Consideration, and the Cash Consideration in exchange for the Old Certificates pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(c)          Horizon shall cause a book-entry account statement representing that number of whole shares of Horizon common stock that each holder of SBI Common Stock has the right to receive and a check in the amount of such holder’s proportionate share of the Cash Consideration, as applicable, and any cash in lieu of fractional shares or dividends or

distributions which such holder shall be entitled to receive, if any, to be delivered to such shareholder as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery to Horizon of the Old Certificates (or bond or other indemnity satisfactory to Horizon if any of such certificates are lost, stolen or destroyed) owned by such shareholder accompanied by a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, in the form and substance satisfactory to Horizon, and any other documents required by this Agreement or reasonably requested by Horizon or the Exchange Agent. No interest will be paid on any Merger Consideration that any such holder shall be entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II upon such delivery.

(d)          No dividends or other distributions on Horizon common stock with a record date occurring after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old Certificate representing shares of SBI Common Stock converted in the Merger into the right to receive shares of Horizon common stock until the holder thereof surrenders such Old Certificates in accordance with this Article II. After becoming so entitled in accordance with this Section 2.05, the record holder thereof also shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of Horizon common stock such holder had the right to receive upon surrender of the Old Certificate.

(e)          The stock transfer books of SBI shall be closed immediately prior to the Effective Time and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer records of SBI of any shares of SBI Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificates are presented to Horizon, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article II.

(f)          Horizon shall be entitled to rely upon SBI’s stock transfer books to establish the identity of those individuals, partnerships, corporations, trusts, joint ventures, organizations, or other entities (each, a “Person”) entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Old Certificate, Horizon shall be entitled, at its own expense, to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party selected by Horizon and thereafter be relieved from any and all liability with respect to any claims thereto.

(g)          If any Old Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Old Certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed and, if required by Horizon, the posting by such Person of a bond or other indemnity satisfactory to Horizon as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, Horizon will issue in exchange for such affidavit of lost, stolen, or destroyed Old Certificate, the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to, and in accordance with, the other terms and conditions of this Article II.

(h)          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all shares of SBI Common Stock that are held as treasury stock of SBI or owned by Horizon (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no stock of Horizon or other consideration shall be exchanged therefor.

(i)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall be liable to any former holder of SBI Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar laws.

(j)          If outstanding Old Certificates are not surrendered or the payment for them is not claimed prior to the date on which the Merger Consideration payable therefor would otherwise escheat to, or become the property of any governmental unit or agency, the unclaimed Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by abandoned property and any other applicable law, become the property of Horizon (and to the extent not in its possession shall be delivered to it), free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. Neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement shall be liable to any holder of shares of SBI Common Stock for any Merger Consideration paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

SBI or one of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, has marketable title in fee simple to all owned real property (including, without limitation, all real property used as bank premises and all OREO); marketable title to all personal property reflected in the SBI Financial Statements as of December 31, 2017, other than personal property disposed of in the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2017; the right to use by valid and enforceable written lease or contract all other real property which SBI or any of its Subsidiaries uses in its respective business; marketable title to, or right to use by terms of a valid and enforceable written lease or contract, all other tangible and intangible property used in its respective business to the extent material thereto; and marketable title to all material property and assets acquired (and not disposed of) or leased since December 31, 2017. All of such owned properties and assets are owned by SBI or its Subsidiaries free and clear of all land or conditional sales contracts, mortgages, liens, pledges, restrictions, options, security, interests, charges, claims, rights of third parties, or encumbrances of any nature except: (i) as set forth in Schedule 3.11(a) of the SBI Disclosure Schedule; (ii) as specifically noted in reasonable detail in the SBI Financial Statements; (iii) statutory liens for taxes not yet delinquent or being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; (iv) pledges or liens required to be granted in connection with the acceptance of government deposits or granted in connection with repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements; and (v) easements, encumbrances and liens, and other matters of record, imperfections of title, and other limitations which are not material in amount and which do not detract from the value or materially interfere with the present or contemplated use of any of the properties subject thereto or otherwise materially impair the use thereof for the purposes for which they are held or used. All real property owned or leased by SBI or its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all respects with all applicable zoning and land use laws and there are no encroachments or other violations of law with respect to any such property. All such properties also comply, in all material respects, with all applicable private agreements, zoning requirements, and other governmental laws and regulations relating thereto, and there are no condemnation proceedings pending or threatened with respect to such properties. All real property, machinery, equipment, furniture, and fixtures owned or leased by SBI or its Subsidiaries that is material to its respective business is in good operating condition for its

intended purpose (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and has been and is being maintained and repaired in the ordinary course of business.

(b)          After the date hereof, Horizon shall be entitled to obtain new commitments for, and policies of title insurance or surveys in respect of, any real property owned or leased by SBI or its Subsidiaries, and SBI shall reimburse Horizon for 50% of the cost and expenses promptly upon receipt of an invoice from Horizon. Within thirty (30) days after the later of Horizon’s receipt of all such surveys and title commitments, Horizon shall notify SBI of any objections to any exceptions, conditions or other matters contained in or set forth in any survey or title commitment other than Standard Permitted Exceptions (the “Unpermitted Exceptions”). The term “Standard Permitted Exceptions” shall include (i) liens for real estate taxes and assessments not yet delinquent; and (ii) utility, access, and other easements, rights of way, restrictions, and exceptions existing on the real estate owned or leased by SBI as shown in the title commitments or surveys, none of which impair such real property for the use and business being conducted thereon in any material respect. Within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice of Unpermitted Exceptions from Horizon, SBI shall commence using its reasonable best efforts to cure any such Unpermitted Exceptions to the satisfaction of Horizon prior to the Closing. If SBI agrees to cure the Unpermitted Exceptions but is unable to cure the Unpermitted Exceptions to the reasonable satisfaction of Horizon prior to the Closing, or does not agree to do so, Horizon may either: (i) waive the uncured Unpermitted Exceptions and close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (ii) if such Unpermitted Exceptions decrease the value of the property by more than $50,000 in the reasonable and good faith estimate of Horizon or would require the expenditure of monies (including legal fees and costs) in excess of $50,000 to cure such Unpermitted Exceptions, reduce the Merger Consideration by the amount Horizon reasonably and in good faith determines will be required to remove or cure the Unpermitted Exceptions (or provide a reasonable alternative thereto).  Such reduction in the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted for any tax savings resulting from the expenditure of such amount (assuming a 21% tax rate).

(c)          With respect to all real property presently or formerly owned, leased, or used by SBI or any of its Subsidiaries, SBI, its Subsidiaries, and to the knowledge of SBI, each of the prior owners, have conducted their respective business in material compliance with all applicable federal, state, county, and municipal laws, statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, orders, directives, restrictions, and requirements relating to, without limitation, responsible property transfer, underground storage tanks, petroleum products, air pollutants, water pollutants, or storm water or process waste water or otherwise relating to the environment, air, water, soil, or toxic or hazardous substances or to the manufacturing, recycling, handling, processing, distribution, use, generation, treatment, storage, disposal, or transport of any hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products (including polychlorinated biphenyls, whether contained or uncontained, and asbestos-containing materials, whether friable or not), including, without limitation, the Federal Solid Waste Disposal Act, the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments, the Federal Clean Air Act, the Federal Clean Water Act, the Occupational Health and Safety Act, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, and the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, all as amended, and regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency, the Nuclear Regulatory Agency, the Army Corps of Engineers, the Department of Interior, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and any state

department of natural resources or state environmental protection agency now or at any time thereafter in effect (collectively, “Environmental Laws”). There are no pending or threatened claims, actions, or proceedings by any local municipality, sewage district, or other governmental entity against SBI or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Environmental Laws, and there is no reasonable basis or grounds for any such claim, action, or proceeding. No environmental clearances are required for the conduct of the business of SBI or any of its Subsidiaries as currently conducted or the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby. Neither SBI nor any of its Subsidiaries is the owner or has been in the chain of title or the operator or lessee, of any property on which any substances have been used, stored, deposited, treated, recycled, or disposed of, other than in compliance with Environmental Laws and which substances, if known to be present on, at or under such property, would require clean-up, removal, treatment, abatement, response costs, or any other remedial action under any Environmental Law. Neither SBI nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liability for any clean-up or remediation under any of the Environmental Laws with respect to any real property.

3.12          Loans and Investments.

(a)          Schedule 3.12(a) of the SBI Disclosure Schedule contains (i) a list of each loan by SBTC that has been classified by regulatory examiners or management as “Other Loans Especially Mentioned,” “Substandard,” “Doubtful,” or “Loss” or that has been identified by accountants or auditors (internal or external) as having a significant risk of uncollectability as of September 30, 2018, (ii) the most recent loan watch list of SBTC and a list of all loans which have been determined to be thirty (30) days or more past due with respect to principal or interest payments, have been placed on nonaccrual status, or have been designated as Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) loans, and (iii) a description of all unfunded loan commitments (and loans currently under consideration) of the types and amounts described in Section 5.03(a)(iv) of this Agreement. SBI and SBTC have not sold, purchased, or entered into any loan participation arrangement which was outstanding at September 30, 2018, except where such participation is on a pro rata basis according to the respective contributions of the participants to such loan amount.

in all respects under the requirements of GAAP to provide for possible losses on items for which reserves were made, on loans and leases outstanding and OREO as of the respective dates.

Neither SBI nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any repurchase agreements with respect to securities. All United States Treasury securities, obligations of other United States Government agencies and corporations, obligations of states of the United States and their political subdivisions, and other investment securities classified as “held to maturity” held by SBI and SBTC, as reflected in the latest balance sheet in the SBI Financial Statements, are carried in the aggregate at no more than cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

SBI and its Subsidiaries have not been cited, fined, or otherwise notified of any failure by it to comply with a BSA/AML Law in the past five (5) years.

3.35          Fairness Opinion. SBI has received an opinion from ▇▇▇▇▇ to the effect that, as of the date of this Agreement, the Merger Consideration to be received by the stockholders of SBI pursuant to this Agreement is fair for such stockholders from a financial point of view. Such opinion has not been amended or rescinded as of the date of this Agreement.

that the foregoing proviso shall not prevent or otherwise affect a determination that any effect underlying or caused by such decline has resulted in a Material Adverse Effect).

(a)          None of Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries is currently in violation of, and during the preceding five (5) years, none has been in violation of any Law, except where such violation would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Horizon. Horizon and its Subsidiaries possess and hold all licenses, franchises, permits, certificates, and other authorizations necessary for the continued conduct of their business without interference or interruption, except where the failure to possess and hold the same would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Horizon.

None of Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries is delinquent in the payment of any material amount due pursuant to any trade payable, and each has properly accrued for such payables in accordance with GAAP, except where the failure to so accrue would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect on Horizon.

4.06          Accuracy of Information Provided to SBI.  Horizon agrees that the information concerning Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries that is provided or to be provided by Horizon to SBI for inclusion or that is included in the Registration Statement or Proxy Statement and any other documents to be filed with any regulatory authority or governmental entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement will at the respective times such documents are filed and, in the case of the Registration Statement, when it becomes effective and, with respect to the Proxy Statement, when mailed, not be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Additionally, any confidential information or trade secrets received by Horizon or SBI, or either of their agents or representatives in the course of their examinations (whether conducted prior to or after the date of this Agreement) shall be treated confidentially and in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in Section 11.09). This Section 5.10 will not require the disclosure of any information to Horizon or SBI which would be prohibited by law.

5.12          Environmental.

(a)          SBI will cooperate with an environmental consulting firm designated by Horizon (the “Designated Environmental Consultant”) in connection with the conduct, at any time after the date hereof (the “Investigation Period”), by the Designated Environmental Consultant of Phase I environmental site assessments and any other investigation reasonably ordered by Horizon on all real property owned or leased by SBI or any of its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement or acquired thereafter, including OREO. Horizon will proceed with such assessments, testing, and investigations as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and will diligently work to pursue such assessments, testing, and investigations through completion. Horizon shall furnish true and complete copies of any reports of the Designated Environmental Consultant that it receives with respect to any SBI property, promptly upon Horizon’s receipt of such reports. Horizon and SBI shall each bear 50% of the costs and expenses of the initial Phase I environmental site assessments (or other similar assessments) and also of any Phase II environmental site assessments or other environmental investigation or testing as determined to be necessary or required due to the presence of any RECs on the Phase I (or other similar assessments) or to the extent otherwise advisable or recommended by the Designated Environmental Consultant. Horizon shall manage the relationship with the Designated Environmental Consultant, and will submit invoices to SBI for the prompt payment of its share of the costs and expenses.

(b)          If the Designated Environmental Consultant’s good faith estimate, based upon the results of the Phase I environmental studies and other diligence and investigation conducted by the Designated Environmental Consultant, of the dollar amount, if any, that SBI and its Subsidiaries would be required to expend due to a violation of applicable Environmental Laws for all of the SBI properties (the “Environmental Liabilities”) for clean-up and remediation relating to pollutants, contaminants, wastes, toxic substances, petroleum, petroleum products, and any other materials regulated under the Environmental Laws with respect to SBI’s or its Subsidiaries’ owned or leased real properties (including OREO) or any adjoining properties (the “Estimated Clean-Up Costs”, as further adjusted pursuant to this Section 5.12), is in excess of $50,000 (the “Environmental Liability Threshold”), Horizon shall deliver to SBI (not later than ten (10) business days of its receipt of the Designated Environmental Consultant’s good faith estimate) a written notice (an “Environmental Cost Notice”) describing the nature of such Environmental Liabilities and the course of action proposed to be taken by Horizon or its

Subsidiaries (if it were to become the owner of such properties as a result of the Merger) to remediate or otherwise address the environmental problems and providing an estimate of the out of pocket cost of such remediation expected to be incurred (if different from the Estimated Clean-Up Costs). If SBI disagrees with Horizon’s estimate of the amount of out of pocket costs of such remediation or the course of action proposed by Horizon, SBI shall deliver to Horizon a written notice of such objection (an “Environmental Cost Objection”) within five (5) business days of SBI’s receipt of the Environmental Cost Notice. No later than five (5) business days following Horizon’s receipt of an Environmental Cost Objection, one or more members of senior management of Horizon and SBI having authority to resolve the dispute shall meet (in person or by telephone) and shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve the difference set forth in the Environmental Cost Objection. Regardless of whether the parties reach a resolution of the dispute within two (2) business days of the first such meeting, subsection (c) shall apply.

(c)          The Estimated Clean-up Costs shall be deemed to have been established for purposes of this Section 5.12: (i) if Horizon does not receive an Environmental Cost Objection, as of the last date that an Environmental Cost Objection would have been timely under subsection (b) above, or (ii) if an Environmental Cost Objection is delivered to Horizon and finally resolved as set forth in subsection (b) hereof or if it remains unresolved under such subsection (in which event the Estimated Clean-Up Costs shall be as set forth in the Environmental Cost Notice), then as of the date of such resolution or on the third (3^rd) business day if unresolved (as the case may be) (as applicable, the “Environmental Costs Determination Date”). Following the establishment of the Estimated Clean-up Costs, if the Estimated Clean-Up Costs are (A) between $50,000 and $1,500,000, then Horizon shall have the right to reduce the Cash Consideration by the Estimated Clean-up Costs, or (B) more than $1,500,000, then Horizon shall have the right to either (1) reduce the Cash Consideration by the Estimated Clean-up Costs or (2) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(iv). Any reduction in the Cash Consideration shall be adjusted for any tax savings resulting from the expenditure of such amount (assuming a 21% tax rate).

5.13          Governmental Reports and Shareholder Information.  Promptly upon its becoming available, SBI shall furnish to Horizon one (1) copy of each financial statement, report, notice, or proxy statement sent by SBI to any Governmental Authority or to SBI’s shareholders, and of any order issued by any Governmental Authority in any proceeding to which SBI is a party. For purposes of this Agreement, “Governmental Authority” shall mean any government (or any political subdivision or jurisdiction thereof), court, bureau, agency, or other governmental entity having or asserting jurisdiction over the applicable party or its business, operations, or properties.

5.14          Adverse Actions.  SBI shall not knowingly take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in (a) any of its representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being or becoming untrue in any respect at any time at or prior to the Effective Time, (b) any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VII not being satisfied, (c) a material violation of any provision of this Agreement, or (d) a material delay in the consummation of the Merger except, in each case, as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

5.15          Employee Benefits and Employees.

(a)          Neither the terms of Section 6.03 hereof nor the provision of any employee benefits by Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries to employees of SBI or any of its Subsidiaries shall: (a) create any employment contract, agreement, or understanding with or employment rights for, or constitute a commitment or obligation of employment to, any of the officers or employees of SBI or any of its Subsidiaries; or (b) prohibit or restrict Horizon or its Subsidiaries, whether before or after the Effective Time, from changing, amending, or terminating any employee benefits provided to its employees from time to time.

(b)          Before the date that is sixty (60) days after the public announcement of the Merger, Horizon will use its reasonable best efforts to notify SBI of the employees Horizon intends to retain after the Effective Time. Prior to the Closing Date, SBI shall be responsible for timely giving any notices to, and terminating, any employees whose employment will not be continued by Horizon, and SBI shall pay any and all amounts which are then due and payable to such employees in connection with the termination of their employment, including, without limitation, all accrued vacation and sick pay and the severance amounts contemplated by Section 6.03(h) of this Agreement.

(c)          Before Closing, with SBI’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), Horizon may conduct such training and other programs as it may, in its reasonable discretion and at its sole expense, elect to provide for those employees who will be continuing employment with Horizon; provided, however, that such training and other programs shall not materially interfere with or prevent the performance of the normal business operations of SBI.

5.16          Change in Control Payments and Termination; Noncompetition Agreements(a)          .

(a)          SBI will pay out all amounts payable upon a change in control pursuant to the Change in Control Agreements, dated June 27, 2018, between SBTC and each of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇. Key, ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, III and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ (collectively, the “CIC Agreements”), as identified on Schedule 5.16 of the SBI Disclosure Schedule, as if the change in control payments contemplated by the CIC Agreements had been triggered by the Merger, provided, however, that such amounts paid by SBI under the CIC Agreements shall not exceed $1.022 million without a reduction in the Cash Consideration to be paid to SBI shareholders in the amount of the excess, adjusted for any tax savings resulting from the expenditure of such amount (assuming a 21% tax rate). As provided in the CIC Agreements, no payment shall be made under such agreements or under any other plan, arrangement or agreement applicable to the individual that would constitute an “excess parachute payment” (as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Code), and to the extent any such payment would constitute an “excess parachute payment,” the payment will be reduced to $1.00 less than the amount that would be considered an “excess parachute payment.” The payment of such amounts shall be contingent upon Messrs. Alender, Key, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ each entering into and executing the following agreements at or before the Effective Time: (i) an Acknowledgment Agreement affirming the restrictive covenants under their respective CIC Agreements, in the form set forth in Schedule 5.16 of

the Horizon Disclosure Schedule (the “Acknowledgment of CIC Agreements”); and (ii) the Release required pursuant to the CIC Agreements, in the form set forth in Schedule 5.16 of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule (the “Release Agreements”). Such payments will be made in a lump sum no later than the Effective Time.

(b)          SBI may pay out retention bonuses as agreed by Horizon on or before the Effective Time. Employees receiving retention bonuses will not receive severance payments under Section 6.03(h).

5.17          Termination of SBI 401(k) Plan.

(a)          SBI maintains the SBI 401(k) Plan. SBI shall make timely contributions to the SBI 401(k) Plan between the date hereof and the Effective Time consistent with the terms of the SBI 401(k) Plan and past practices, including, without limitation, elective deferral contributions of those SBI 401(k) Plan participants who are employed by SBI or its Subsidiaries.

(b)          On or before the Effective Time, the trustee of the SBI 401(k) Plan shall (i) provide to the SBI 401(k) Plan participants similar notices and materials provided to other SBI shareholders with respect to those matters requiring a vote of the shareholders under this Agreement; (ii) obtain direction from the SBI 401(k) Plan’s participants as to how to vote those shares of SBI Common Stock allocated to the accounts of the SBI 401(k) Plan’s participants with respect to those matters for which shareholder vote is required under this Agreement; (iii) vote those shares of SBI Common Stock in accordance with the direction of the SBI 401(k) Plan’s participants and in accordance with the SBI 401(k) Plan; and (iv) vote the shares of SBI Common Stock for which no participant investment direction has been timely received by the trustee in accordance with the SBI 401(k) Plan.

(c)          No later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, SBI, pursuant to the provisions of the SBI 401(k) Plan, shall, subject to review and approval by Horizon: (i) adopt resolutions to terminate, subject to the consummation of the Merger, the SBI 401(k) Plan, consistent with the provisions of Code Section 401(k)(10), effective as of a date that is not later than the day before the Effective Time (the “Plan Termination Date”) and (ii) amend the SBI 401(k) Plan effective as of a date not later than the Plan Termination Date to freeze participation in and benefit accruals under the SBI 401(k) Plan and to provide that no distributions of accrued benefits shall be made from the SBI 401(k) Plan, or its related employee benefit trust, subsequent to the Plan Termination Date until such time as the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable determination letter to the effect that the plan termination does not adversely affect the SBI 401(k) Plan’s qualification for favorable income tax treatment under the Code, other than distributions required by the terms of the SBI 401(k) Plan to be made upon retirement, death, disability, or termination of employment, or any other event, other than the plan termination, that requires a distribution from the SBI 401(k) Plan.

(d)          Any contributions due to the SBI 401(k) Plan for the period prior to the Plan Termination Date, and not yet paid on the Plan Termination Date, will be contributed by SBI as soon as administratively feasible following the Plan Termination Date.

(e)          SBI shall continue in full force and effect, until the Effective Time: (i) the fidelity bond, if any, issued to SBI as described in ERISA Section 412; and (ii) the ERISA fiduciary

liability insurance policy currently in effect, if any, for the benefit of the covered fiduciaries of the SBI 401(k) Plan.

5.18          Disposition of Welfare Benefit and Sec. 125 Plans.

(a)          All welfare benefit (health, dental/vision, life/AD&D, LTD), and Internal Revenue Code Section 125, or “cafeteria,” plans currently sponsored by SBI or SBTC shall be terminated as of the Effective Time, unless Horizon determines that any such plan shall be continued past the Effective Time. SBI shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to terminate all of SBI’s and any Subsidiary’s group insurance policies as of the Effective Time, unless otherwise instructed by Horizon.

(b)          SBI shall formally terminate the Salin Group Employee Benefit Trust and file Forms 990 for plan year 2014-2017 for the Salin Group Employee Benefit Trust prior to the Effective Time.

(c)          As of the Effective Time, and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, SBI shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to assign any and all applicable group insurance policies for any SBI plans to Horizon and to provide Horizon all necessary financial, enrollment, eligibility, contractual, and other information related to its welfare benefit and cafeteria plans to assist Horizon in the administration of such plans, unless Horizon has determined that any or all of the group insurance policies should be terminated as of the Effective Time.

(d)          From the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, SBI shall continue to: (i) pay the applicable insurance premiums necessary to continue the benefits under SBI’s insured welfare benefit plans; (ii) contribute to the cafeteria plan the pre-tax amounts which the cafeteria plan participants elect to defer from their compensation; and (iii) pay all eligible claims incurred, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan, under the cafeteria plan’s health and dependent care flexible spending accounts prior to the Effective Time.

5.19          Bank Merger.  Prior to the Effective Time, SBI shall, and cause SBTC to, cooperate with Horizon and take such action as reasonably requested by Horizon and necessary to (i) merge SBTC with and into Horizon Bank as of the Effective Time, and/or (ii) reconstitute the directors and officers of SBTC as of the Effective Time to be the same as the directors and officers of Horizon Bank at the Effective Time, and amend the articles of incorporation and bylaws of SBTC as of the Effective Time or make such other changes as Horizon Bank may request if necessary to accomplish the same.

5.20          Cooperation on Conversion of Systems. SBI agrees to commence immediately after the date of this Agreement (and continue until Closing or completed) using its reasonable best efforts to ensure an orderly transfer of information, processes, systems, and data to Horizon and to otherwise assist Horizon in facilitating the conversion of all of SBI’s systems into, or to conform with, Horizon’s systems (including cooperating with Horizon in the training of SBI’s and its Subsidiaries’ employees on Horizon’s systems), so that, as of the Closing, the systems of SBI are readily convertible to Horizon’s systems to the fullest extent possible without actually converting them prior to the Closing. SBI and Horizon shall meet on a regular basis to discuss

and plan for the conversion of SBI’s data processing and related electronic informational systems to those used by Horizon, which planning shall include, without limitation: (i) discussion of possible termination by SBI of third-party service provider arrangements effective at or following the Effective Time; (ii) non-renewal of personal property leases and software licenses used by SBI in connection with its systems operations; and (iii) retention of outside consultants and additional employees to assist with the conversion and outsourcing, as appropriate, of proprietary or self-provided system services.

5.21          Installation/Conversion of Equipment.  Prior to Closing, at times mutually agreeable to Horizon and SBI, Horizon may, at Horizon’s sole expense, install teller equipment, platform equipment, security equipment, and computers, at the SBI and SBTC offices, branches, and ATM locations, and SBI shall cooperate with Horizon in connection with such installation; provided, however, that such installations shall not interfere with the normal business activities and operations of SBI or SBTC or require material alterations to SBI’s or SBTC’s facilities.

5.22          Compensation Agreement.  In consideration of SBI and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, Chairman of the Board of SBTC, entering into a Termination of Compensation Agreement to terminate, as of the Closing Date, the Compensation Agreement, dated December 19, 2016 (“Salin Compensation Agreement”), Horizon shall, at its election, either (i) purchase and own a guaranteed annuity for the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ and his spouse, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, in substitution therefor, on terms reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ and Horizon, and at a price that shall not exceed $3.6 million without a reduction in the Cash Consideration to be paid to SBI shareholders in the amount of the excess, adjusted for any tax savings resulting from the expenditure of such amount (assuming a 21% tax rate); or (ii) make payments to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, or to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ upon his death, in the amounts and on the schedule and for the duration described in the Salin Compensation Agreement. In the alternative, if prior to Closing, SBI has caused the Salin Compensation Agreement to be assumed by SBI’s shareholders and/or otherwise transferred or terminated, without any liability or cost to SBI, then Horizon shall make adjustments to the Cash Consideration in the amount of $3.6 million, adjusted for any tax savings.

5.23          Maintenance of Certain Accounts and Relationships. The customers listed on Schedule 5.23 of the SBI Disclosure Schedule, all of whom are direct or indirect shareholders of SBI, or their representatives or affiliates, shall maintain the accounts and relationships listed on Schedule 5.23, including, without limitation, all loans, deposits, trust accounts, investment management accounts, and other accounts held by these customers (collectively, the “Retained Accounts”) at SBTC through the Closing Date, and at the Effective Time, such customers with Retained Accounts shall have provided signed commitments to Horizon that the Retained Accounts will be maintained at Horizon Bank for a period of five (5) years after the Closing, provided that Horizon Bank offers the products and services required by such customers at competitive rates and terms.

5.24          Sale or Distribution of Certain SBI Direct Subsidiaries.  Not later than one (1) day prior to the Closing Date, SBI shall distribute to the shareholders of SBI, or sell to one or more third parties, on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Horizon, all of the equity ownership interests held by SBI in its Subsidiaries Skyline Village Apartments L.P., Gardenview Limited Partnership and Whispering Winds Limited L.P. (collectively, the “Investment

Subsidiaries”) in a manner that neither (a) disqualifies the Merger as a tax-free reorganization as contemplated by Section 1.03 of this Agreement, nor (b) reasonably could be expected to give rise to the recognition of gain in any taxable period ending after the Closing Date.

5.25          Termination of Contracts. SBI shall cooperate with Horizon to determine which contracts, agreements or arrangements will not be retained by Horizon and will be terminated, in addition to terminating the Data Processing Agreement and the Network Agreement as defined and described in Section 7.01(l) (collectively, the“Terminated Contracts”). SBI shall promptly give notice and take all other appropriate actions to terminate the Terminated Contracts and to determine any and all termination costs, including without limitation, early termination fees, penalties and recaptures of discounts (collectively, “Termination Fees”). The Termination Fees for the Terminated Contracts shall not exceed $2.3 million without a reduction in the Cash Consideration to be paid to SBI shareholders in the amount of the excess, adjusted for any tax savings resulting from the expenditure of such amount (assuming a 21% tax rate).

5.26          Disposition of VISA Class B Preferred Stock. SBI has represented that it owns certain shares of VISA Class B preferred stock. SBI shall dispose of the VISA Class B preferred stock on or before the Closing Date and shall be entitled to distribute the net after-tax proceeds from the disposition. In the event the VISA Class B preferred stock is not disposed of by the Closing Date, then ownership shall pass to Horizon by operation of law at the Effective Time. If it is later disposed of by Horizon within two (2) years of the Effective Time, then Horizon shall distribute the proceeds to the shareholders of SBI at the Effective Time, in accordance with their respective interests, net of all taxes and selling expenses, including brokerage fees or otherwise.

ARTICLE VI.

COVENANTS OF HORIZON

Horizon covenants and agrees with SBI and covenants and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to act as follows (and SBI covenants and agrees with Horizon as follows):

6.01          Approvals.  Horizon shall have primary responsibility of the preparation, filing, and costs of all bank regulatory applications required for consummation of the Merger, and all parties shall file such applications as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement not to exceed 60 days. Horizon and SBI shall provide to the other’s counsel copies of all applications filed and copies of all material written communications with all state and federal bank regulatory agencies relating to such applications. Horizon and SBI shall cooperate fully and use commercially reasonable efforts to procure, upon terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to each of them, all consents, authorizations, approvals, registrations, and certificates, to complete all filings and applications, and to satisfy all other requirements prescribed by law which are necessary for consummation of the Merger on the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement.

6.02          SEC Registration.

(a)          As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, SBI (with the assistance of Horizon as appropriate) shall prepare the required proxy disclosures, in accordance

with the rules and regulations of the SEC, to be used in connection with the SBI shareholders meeting or approval for the merger (the “Proxy Statement”), and Horizon shall prepare and file with the SEC a joint registration and proxy or information statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) covering the shares of Horizon Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement and containing the Proxy Statement to be used for the SBI Shareholders’ Meeting, as applicable. Such registration statement and any amendments and supplements thereto are referred to in this Agreement as the “Registration Statement.” Horizon shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the same to become effective and thereafter, until the Effective Time or termination of this Agreement, to keep the same effective and, if necessary, amend and supplement the same. Horizon shall, as soon as practicable after filing the Registration Statement (but not to exceed 75 days), make all filings required to obtain all blue sky exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals required for the issuance of Horizon common stock.

(b)          The parties shall use reasonable best efforts to respond (with the assistance of the other party) as promptly as practicable to any comments of the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement. If prior to the Effective Time any event occurs with respect to SBI, Horizon, or any Subsidiary of SBI or Horizon, respectively, or any change occurs with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of SBI or Horizon, respectively, for inclusion in the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement that, in each case, is required to be described in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, SBI or Horizon, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other of such event, and SBI or Horizon, as applicable, shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement and, as required by applicable Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to SBI’s shareholders.

(c)          Horizon will use reasonable best efforts to list for trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (subject to official notice of issuance) prior to the Effective Time, the shares of Horizon common stock to be issued in the Merger.

6.03          Employee Benefit Plans and Employee Payments.

(a)          Horizon shall make available to the officers and employees of SBI or any Subsidiary who continue as employees of Horizon or any Subsidiary after the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”), substantially the same employee benefits as are generally available to all Horizon employees, except where different benefits are required by other provisions of this Agreement.

(b)          Horizon and SBI agree to address any issues related to the differences between the vacation and paid time off policies of SBI and any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any banked paid time) and the vacation and paid time off policies of Horizon, and communicate the proposed reconciliation of the policies to the Continuing Employees prior to the Effective Time. Effective as of the later of the Effective Time or the date on which the Horizon vacation and paid time off policies are made available to the Continuing Employees, such Continuing Employees will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Horizon vacation/paid time off policy in place for similarly situated employees of Horizon, with credit given for all prior years

of service with SBI or any Subsidiary for purposes of determining vacation pay eligibility and the amount of such vacation pay.

(c)          Continuing Employees will receive credit for prior service with SBI or its Subsidiaries, or their predecessors, for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accrual) under the employee benefit plans of Horizon and its Subsidiaries.

(d)          To the extent a SBI employee benefit plan is terminated at or prior to the Effective Time, Continuing Employees shall become eligible to participate in Horizon’s similar employee benefit plans as of the Effective Time. Horizon will use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) avoid subjecting Continuing Employees to any waiting periods or additional pre-existing condition limitations under the health and dental plans of Horizon or its Subsidiaries in which they are eligible to participate than they otherwise would have been subject to under the health and dental plans of SBI; and (ii) give credit under the applicable plan for any deductibles and co-insurance payments made by such Continuing Employees under the corresponding SBI plan during the balance of the then current 12-month period of coverage.

(e)          To the extent permitted under the terms of any tax-qualified retirement plan maintained by Horizon after the Effective Time and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, such plan shall accept “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Code Section 402(c)(4)) of cash amounts received from the SBI 401(k) Plan with respect to any Continuing Employees.

(f)          Horizon may elect to continue to maintain all fully insured employee welfare benefit and cafeteria plans currently in effect at the Effective Time until such time as Horizon determines, in its sole discretion, to modify or terminate any or all of those plans. Claims incurred under the employee welfare benefit and cafeteria plans prior to plan termination shall be paid in accordance with the applicable plan’s claim submission procedures and deadlines.

(g)          Until the Effective Time, SBI or a Subsidiary of SBI, whichever is applicable, shall be liable for all obligations for continued health coverage pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code and Sections 601 through 609 of ERISA (“COBRA”) for eligible employees who incur a qualifying event before the Effective Time. Horizon or a Horizon Subsidiary, whichever is applicable, shall, after the Effective Time, be liable for (i) all obligations for continued health coverage under COBRA with respect to each qualified beneficiary of SBI or a Subsidiary of SBI who incurs a termination on and after the Effective Time, and (ii) for continued health coverage under COBRA from and after the Effective Time for each qualified beneficiary of SBI or a Subsidiary of SBI who incurs a qualifying event before the Effective Time.

(h)          Except for Messrs. Alender, Key, Freiburg and ▇▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, and any other employee receiving a separate change in control, severance, retention bonus, or similar payment in connection with the Closing of the Merger, those employees of SBTC as of the Effective Time (i) who are still employed by SBTC and who Horizon or its Subsidiaries elect not to employ after the Effective Time or who are terminated involuntarily, other than for cause, within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date; and (ii) who sign and deliver a termination and release agreement in a form acceptable to Horizon (as set forth in Schedule 6.03(h) of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule), shall be entitled to severance pay equal to one (1) week of pay, at

their base rate of pay in effect at the time of termination, for each full year of continuous service with SBTC with a minimum of four (4) weeks and a maximum of twenty-six (26) weeks. Such employees will receive their severance in a lump-sum payment. Furthermore, any of such terminated employees shall be entitled to continuation coverage under Horizon Bank’s group health plans as required by COBRA, subject to timely election and payment of the applicable COBRA premium by such terminated employees. In addition, Horizon, at its expense, will provide group career counseling for SBTC employees who will not be continuing with Horizon and will make professional career counseling services available through its internal employee assistance program of up to four (4) visits per employee. Nothing in this Section 6.03(h) shall be deemed to limit or modify Horizon’s or Horizon Bank’s at-will employment policy or any employee’s at will employment status.

6.04          Adverse Actions.  Horizon shall not knowingly take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in (a) any of its representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being or becoming untrue in any respect at any time at or prior to the Effective Time, (b) any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VII not being satisfied, or (c) a material violation of any provision of this Agreement.

6.05          D&O Insurance and Indemnification.

(a)          For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, Horizon agrees that all rights to indemnification (including rights to advancement of expenses) provided for in the respective Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of SBI and SBTC, or required under any applicable Law, in each case as in effect on the date hereof, will survive the Merger and will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the present and former directors and officers of SBI and SBTC (each, an “Indemnified Party”) for acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.05, Horizon shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnified Party to a greater extent than either SBI or SBTC could, as of the date of this Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless such Indemnified Party, and indemnification shall only be provided to the extent it is permitted by any applicable federal or state Laws.

(b)          Provided SBI has historically carried directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, Horizon shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the persons serving as officers and directors of SBI and SBTC immediately prior to the Effective Time to be covered for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy currently maintained by SBI (the “Existing Policy”) or by a comparable or better policy (the “Replacement Policy”). Prior to the Effective Time, as instructed by Horizon, SBI shall cause the applicable broker of record for its Existing Policy and its Financial Institution Bond (or similar policy) to be assigned to Horizon’s designee. Such assignments in favor of Horizon’s designee shall be executed by SBI with sufficient time to allow Horizon and its designee to place the insurance required by this Section. The Existing Policy or Replacement Policy, subject to policy terms and conditions, shall provide coverage with respect to covered acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that Horizon shall not be required to pay annual premiums for the Existing Policy (or for any Replacement Policy) in excess of 150%

of the annual premium for the current annual term of the Existing Policy (the “Maximum Amount”); and, provided, further, however, that, if notwithstanding the use of reasonable efforts to do so, Horizon is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 6.05(b), Horizon shall obtain as much comparable insurance as is available for the Maximum Amount. Horizon’s obligations within this Section 6.05(b) apply solely and exclusively to the Existing Policy and the existing Financial Institution Bond at each policy’s current limits of insurance, as well as its other terms, conditions, exclusions and annual premiums as of the date of this Agreement, and which must be continuously maintained in force by SBI without interruption, cancellation, or amendment until the Effective Time or Horizon’s obligations within this Section shall cease.

(c)          The provisions of this Section 6.05 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and personal representatives.

(d)          In the event that either Horizon or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Horizon shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.05.

(e)          The following provisions shall apply to any challenge or litigation brought against SBI, SBTC or their respective employees, officers and directors with respect to the execution and/or consummation of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or any proxy statement or registration statement issued in connection with the proposed transactions (“Transaction Litigation”):

(i)          At all times before the Closing, SBI shall keep Horizon fully informed about the conduct of any Transaction Litigation and shall not settle any such Transaction Litigation without Horizon’s advance written consent.

(ii)          Should Transaction Litigation continue or be initiated after the Closing, Horizon shall have the sole right to control the defense of the Transaction Litigation, including the right to settle any such litigation without consent from any SBI or SBTC employees, officers or directors who are defendants, so long as such settlement does not, with respect to any such defendants, (1) involve an admission of fault or personal liability, (2) impose any legal restrictions on such defendant’s future conduct, or (3) require payment of any amount in settlement.

6.06          Changes and Supplements to Horizon Disclosure Schedules.  Horizon shall promptly supplement, amend, and update, upon the occurrence of any change prior to the Effective Time, and as of the Effective Time, the Horizon Disclosure Schedule with respect to any matters or events hereafter arising which, if in existence or having occurred as of the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Horizon Disclosure Schedule or this Agreement and including, without limitation, any fact which, if existing or known as of the date hereof, would have made any of the representations or warranties of Horizon contained herein materially incorrect, untrue or misleading. No such supplement,

amendment, or update shall have any effect for the purposes of determining satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII or become part of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule unless SBI shall have first consented in writing with respect thereof.

6.07          Trust Preferred Securities.  At the Effective Time, Horizon shall assume the due and punctual performance and observance of the covenants and conditions to be performed by SBI under the Indenture dated October 17, 2003 (the “2003 Indenture”) between SBI and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee, relating to the Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2033 (the “Debt Securities”), and agrees to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Debt Securities, as required by the 2003 Indenture. In connection therewith, Horizon shall execute and deliver any supplemental indentures, and the parties hereto shall provide any opinions of counsel to the applicable trustees thereof, required to make such assumptions effective.

6.08          Issuance of Horizon Common Stock.  The Horizon Common Stock to be issued by Horizon to the shareholders of SBI pursuant to this Agreement will, on the issuance and delivery to such shareholders pursuant to this Agreement, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable. The Horizon common stock to be issued to the shareholders of SBI pursuant to this Agreement are and will be free of any preemptive rights of the shareholders of Horizon or any other Person, firm, or entity. The Horizon common stock to be issued to the shareholders of SBI pursuant to this Agreement will not be subject to any restrictions on transfer arising under the 1933 Act, except for Horizon common stock issued to any shareholder of SBI who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” (under the Securities Act) of Horizon after completion of the Merger pursuant to Rule 145 of the Securities Act.

6.09          [Intentionally Omitted].

6.10          Community Investment. Horizon agrees that, for each of the calendar years of 2019 through 2023, Horizon shall cause Horizon Bank to donate $50,000 annually either to Salin Foundation, Inc., for purposes of its Salin Foundation Community Scholarship Program, or to another non-profit organization at Salin Foundation, Inc.’s direction. The continuation of these annual donations will not be required if the board of directors of Horizon Bank determines in good faith that such payments would constitute an unsafe and unsound banking practice or would materially and adversely impact the financial condition of Horizon Bank, and will be dependent upon the permissibility of such payments under applicable law, including all banking regulations.

(ii)          SBI breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties, or covenants contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.01, and such condition is incapable of being satisfied by the Outside Date or such breach has not been cured by SBI within twenty (20) business days after SBI’s receipt of written notice of such breach from Horizon;

If Horizon or any company belonging to the Index declares or effects a stock dividend, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, or similar transaction between the date of this Agreement and the Determination Date, the prices for the common stock of such company shall be appropriately adjusted for the purposes of applying this Section 8.01(g).

(a)          Subject to the remainder of this Section 8.02, in the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of Horizon or SBI and each of their respective Subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, or shareholders and all rights and obligations of any party under this Agreement shall cease, except for the agreements contained in Sections 5.06 and 8.02 and Article XI, which shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement, including this Section 8.02, except for the amounts payable pursuant to subsections (b), (c), or (d), shall relieve any party hereto from liabilities or damages arising out of any fraud or intentional or willful breach by such party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or other agreements contained in this Agreement or any related agreement.

(b)          SBI shall pay to Horizon an amount in cash equal to $9,600,000 (the “Termination Fee”) if:

(i)          this Agreement is terminated by Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(e); or

(ii)          this Agreement is terminated by either party pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) as a result of the failure of SBI’s shareholders to approve the Agreement and the Merger by the requisite vote or terminated by Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(f) and, in each case, SBI or any of its Subsidiaries at any time before or within 12 months after such termination either (A) entered into any letter of intent, merger or other agreement involving or with the potential to lead to an Acquisition Proposal (an “Acquisition Agreement”), or (B) has consummated any Acquisition Proposal; or

(iii)          this Agreement is terminated by either SBI or Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iii) and (A) prior to the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal was made, and (B) prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after such termination, SBI, or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement or any Acquisition Proposal is consummated.

(iv)          this Agreement is terminated by Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(i), (ii) or (iii) as a result of an intentional, willful, or grossly negligent breach or nonperformance by SBI of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement.

(d)          In the event Horizon would be entitled to the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.02(b), then Horizon may elect, in its sole discretion, to (i) terminate this Agreement and require the payment of such Termination Fee, in which event the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for such termination event and such fee shall constitute liquidated damages; provided, however, this Agreement shall not be terminated until the Termination Fee is paid in full, or (ii) not terminate this Agreement and institute a proceeding at law or in equity to specifically enforce this Agreement and/or recover all of its damages arising hereunder, including all of its costs, fees, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses). SBI acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Horizon would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if SBI fails promptly to pay the Termination Fee, and, in order to obtain such payment, Horizon commences a suit that results in a judgment against SBI for the Termination Fee, SBI shall also pay to Horizon its reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit and any appeal relating thereto, together with interest at the national prime rate in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.
