The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be “Sky Financial Group, Inc.” The principal place of business of the Surviving Corporation shall be Bowling Green, Ohio. The Sky Articles, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, and the Sky Code, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Code of Regulations of the Surviving Corporation.

The officers of Sky immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office until the next organizational meeting of the Surviving Corporation and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal from office. ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares outstanding at the Effective Time of the Parent Merger shall be automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive the consideration described in Article III below. At any time prior to the Effective Time Sky may elect to change the method of effecting the Parent Merger (including, without limitation, the provisions of this Article II) if and to the extent it deems such change to be necessary, appropriate or desirable; provided, however, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of consideration to be issued to holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Shares as provided for in Article III of this Agreement (subject to the adjustments specifically provided for therein), (ii) adversely affect the tax treatment of ▇▇▇▇▇’ shareholders as a result of receiving the Merger Consideration or (iii) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If Sky makes such an election, Sky will provide ▇▇▇▇▇ with sufficient notice and information so that ▇▇▇▇▇ can analyze the impact of such change. Following such analysis and provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ reasonably agrees that such change does not conflict with any of (i) through (iii) above, then Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement in order to reflect such election.

2.02 The Subsidiary Merger. At the time determined by Sky and specified in the Certificate of Merger filed with the OSS (which shall not be earlier than the Effective Time), Perpetual Savings and Sky Bank shall be merged into a single financial institution (the “Subsidiary Merger”) pursuant to an agreement to merge (the “Agreement to Merge”) to be executed by Perpetual Savings and Sky Bank. Sky in its sole discretion shall determine which of the constituent financial institutions will be the surviving financial institution to the Subsidiary Merger. Sky may at any time prior to the consummation of the Subsidiary Merger change the method of effecting the Subsidiary Merger (including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 2.02) if and to the extent it deems such change to be necessary, appropriate or desirable; provided, however, the no such change shall adversely affect the tax treatment of ▇▇▇▇▇’ shareholders as a result of receiving the Merger Consideration.

2.04 Effective Date and Effective Time. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the parties shall cause the effective date of the Parent Merger (the “Effective Date”) to occur on a date to be determined by Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ in their reasonable discretion, which date shall be a reasonably short time after the last of the conditions set forth in Article VII shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that no such designation shall cause the Effective Date to fall after the date specified in Section 8.01(c) hereof or after the date or dates on which any Regulatory Authority approval or any extension thereof expires. The time on the Effective Date when the Parent Merger shall become effective is referred to as the “Effective Time.”

ARTICLE III

Consideration; Exchange Procedures

3.01 Merger Consideration. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Parent Merger and without any action on the part of any Person:

(a) Outstanding ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares. Subject to the adjustments and limitations set forth in the subsections of this Section 3.01 that follow, each ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Share (excluding Treasury Stock, Dissenting Shares and ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares held by Sky, if any) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Parent Merger and on the Effective Date, become and be converted into (i) cash in the amount of $8,530.1603 for each ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Share (the “Cash Exchange Amount”) and (ii) 229.5831 Sky Common Shares (the “Stock Exchange Ratio”) (such cash and stock, and cash paid in lieu of fractional shares shall collectively be referred to as the “Merger Consideration”). The aggregate Merger Consideration shall be $6,600,000 in cash and shares of Sky Common Stock with an aggregate value as of the date of this Agreement of $4,400,000.

(b) Treasury Shares and Shares Held by Sky. Each ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Share held as Treasury Stock or held by Sky immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired at the Effective Time and no consideration shall be issued in exchange therefor. For purposes of this provision, shares held by Subsidiaries of Sky shall not be deemed to be held by Sky.

(c) Dissenting Shares. Dissenting Shares shall not be exchanged for Sky Common Shares but rather shall be entitled to the rights set forth in Sections 1701.84 and 1701.85 of the OGCL. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Dissenting Shares shall not, after the Effective Time, be entitled to vote for any purpose or receive any dividends or other distributions

(except dividends or other distributions payable to shareholders of record of ▇▇▇▇▇ at a date which is prior to the Effective Date) and shall be entitled only to such rights as are afforded in respect of Dissenting Shares pursuant to the OGCL.

(d) Outstanding Sky Common Shares. Each Sky Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding and shall be unaffected by the Parent Merger.

3.02 Rights as Shareholders; Stock Transfers. At the Effective Time, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist and holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares shall cease to be, and shall have no rights as, shareholders of ▇▇▇▇▇, other than to receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to such ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares with a record date occurring prior to the Effective Time, the consideration provided under this Article III and the appraisal rights in the case of Dissenting Shares. After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of ▇▇▇▇▇ or the Surviving Corporation of any ▇▇▇▇▇ Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, if applicable).

3.03 Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no fractional Sky Common Shares and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Parent Merger and no Sky dividend or other distribution or stock split or combination will relate to any fractional Sky Common Share, and such fractional Sky Common Shares will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a security holder of Sky; instead, Sky shall pay to each holder of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional Sky Common Share (after taking into account all Old Certificates delivered by such holder) an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fractional Sky Common Share to which the holder would be entitled by the Average NGSM Closing Price.

3.04 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Establishment of Exchange Fund. At or prior to the Effective Time, Sky shall deposit with the Escrow Agent an estimated amount of cash (such cash, together with any dividends or distributions with a record date occurring on or after the Effective Date and any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional Sky Common Shares, being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”) to be paid pursuant to this Article III in exchange for outstanding ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares. At or prior to the Effective Time, Sky shall authorize its Shareholder Relations Department (in such capacity, the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of certificates representing ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares (“Old Certificates”) exchanged in accordance with this Article III, to order Sky’s transfer agent to issue certificates representing the Sky Common Shares (“New Certificates”), and to order cash payments by the Escrow Agent. Sky shall make available directly or indirectly to the Escrow Agent, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay (i) the cash portion of the Merger Consideration, (ii) cash in lieu of fractional Sky Common Shares pursuant to Section 3.03 and (iii) any dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 3.04(e).

(b) No Interest. No interest will be paid on any cash, including any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional Sky Common Shares or in respect of dividends or distributions, that any such Person shall be entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III.

(c) Surrender Procedures. At least 20 days prior to the Effective Time, Sky shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of an Old Certificate that is eligible to be converted pursuant to Section 3.01 both (i) a form of letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), reasonably acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇, specifying that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Old Certificates will pass, only upon proper delivery of the Old Certificates to the Exchange Agent and (ii) instructions and procedures for surrendering Old Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration, including New Certificates and cash. If a holder of the Old Certificates delivers to the Exchange Agent a properly executed Letter of Transmittal at least 10 calendar days prior to the Effective Time and then surrenders the Old Certificates to the Exchange Agent at the

Effective Time, then upon such surrender, the holder of such Old Certificate shall receive, in exchange therefor (A) a New Certificate representing that number of whole Sky Common Shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and/or (B) a check in an amount equal to the sum of the cash to be paid to such holder as part of the Merger Consideration, the cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional Sky Common Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.03 and/or the cash to be paid in respect of any dividends or distributions to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.04(e), after giving effect to any required tax withholdings, and the Old Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of ▇▇▇▇▇, a New Certificate representing the proper number of Sky Common Shares may be issued, and/or the cash to be paid as part of the Merger Consideration, in lieu of any fractional Sky Common Shares and/or in respect of any dividends or distributions may be paid, to a transferee if the Old Certificate is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer, and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.04(c), each Old Certificate will be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender a New Certificate and/or a check in an amount equal to the sum of the cash to be paid as part of the Merger Consideration, the cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional Sky Common Shares and/or the cash to be paid in respect of any dividends or distributions to which the holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.04(e) hereof.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Promptly following the date that is six months after the Effective Date, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to Sky all cash, certificates and other documents in its possession relating to the transactions described in this Agreement; and any holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article III may look thereafter only to Sky for the Merger Consideration to which they are entitled pursuant to this Article III. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any former holder of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares for any part of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(e) Sky Dividends and Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Sky Common Shares with a record date occurring on or after the Effective Date shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old Certificate until the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive New Certificates in exchange therefor in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.04. After becoming so entitled in accordance with this Section 3.04, the record holder of such Old Certificate also shall be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to Sky Common Shares such holder had the right to receive in exchange for surrender of the Old Certificates.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed ▇▇▇▇▇ Certificates. If any Old Certificate has 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 Sky, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Sky may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate (i) the number of Sky Common Shares to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 3.01(a) with respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares formerly represented thereby, and/or (ii) a check in an amount equal to the sum of the cash to be paid to such Person as part of the Merger Consideration, the cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional Sky Common Shares to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 3.03 and/or the cash to be paid in respect of any dividends or distributions to which such Person may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.04(e).

Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Sky, such withheld amounts may be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares and ▇▇▇▇▇ Stock Options in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by Sky.

3.05 Anti-Dilution Provisions. In the event Sky changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of Sky Common Shares issued and outstanding between the date hereof and the Effective Date as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, split up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding Sky Common Shares and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Date, the Stock Exchange Ratio shall be proportionately adjusted. In the event that Rights are issued under the Shareholder Rights Plan of Sky (then known as Citizens Bancshares, Inc.) dated July 21, 1998, and such Rights are issued between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Date, then ▇▇▇▇▇ shareholders who receive Sky Common Shares as a result of the Parent Merger shall additionally receive Rights on the Effective Date to the same extent they would have received Rights if they had held such Sky Common Shares when such Rights were issued.

To the knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇, there is no pending investigation or enforcement action by the Department of Labor or IRS or any other governmental agency with respect to any Compensation and Benefit Plan.

(iv) All contributions required to be made under the terms of any Compensation and Benefit Plan or any other plan for which ▇▇▇▇▇ or its subsidiaries have liability and which are maintained by an entity that is considered to be related to ▇▇▇▇▇ under Section 414(b) or (c) of the IRC have been timely made in cash or have been reflected on the ▇▇▇▇▇ Financial Statements as of December 31, 2005, [except for matching contributions under ▇▇▇▇▇’ 401(k) Plan with respect to employee contributions made after December 31, 2005].

(v) Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ not any of its Subsidiaries has any obligations to provide retiree health and life insurance or other retiree death benefits under any Compensation and Benefit Plan, other than benefits mandated by Section 4980B of the IRC or those derived from a Pension Plan. There has been no communication to Employees by ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to promise or guarantee such Employees retiree health or life insurance or other retiree death benefits on a permanent basis.

(vi) ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries do not maintain any Compensation and Benefit Plans covering foreign Employees.

(ix) Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ nor any of its Subsidiaries maintains any compensation plans, programs or arrangements the payments under which would not reasonably be expected to be deductible as a result of the limitations under Section 162(m) of the IRC and the regulations issued thereunder.

Except for the minutes relating to the process leading to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder, the books and records of Sky and its Subsidiaries have been fully, properly and accurately maintained in all material respects, have been maintained in accordance with sound business practices and the requirements of Section 13(b)(2) of the Exchange Act, and there are no material inaccuracies or discrepancies of any kind contained or reflected therein, and they fairly present the substance of events and transactions included therein.

(n) Disclosure. The information Previously Disclosed by Sky, when taken together with the representations and warranties contained in this Section 5.04, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements and information contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are being made, not misleading.

(o) Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2005, Sky has not, on a consolidated basis, suffered a change in its business, financial condition or results of operations, except as disclosed in the Sky SEC Documents filed prior to the date of this Agreement, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Sky and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

(p) Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses reflected on the Sky Financial Statements, as of their respective dates, is adequate in all material respects under the requirements of GAAP and applicable regulatory requirements and guidelines to provide for reasonably anticipated losses on outstanding Loans, net of recoveries.

(q) Financing. Sky has sufficient funds to finance the Merger Consideration.

(r) Sophisticated Investor. Sky has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits of an investment in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares, and the matters discussed in this Agreement.

(s) Due Diligence. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, Sky received, inspected, reviewed, and evaluated such documents, reports, financial statements, business records, and corporate records of ▇▇▇▇▇ as were made available by ▇▇▇▇▇, and, to the extent permitted by ▇▇▇▇▇,

met with and interviewed such officers, directors, employees and others as requested by its consultants, attorneys, employees, and representatives in the performance of its due diligence. However, neither the investigation described in the preceding sentence nor this Section 5.04(s) shall be deemed to modify the representations and warranties of ▇▇▇▇▇ set forth in Article V or the duties and obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇ under this Agreement.

(a) Undertakings. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agrees to use its reasonable best efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable, or advisable under applicable Laws, so as to permit consummation of the Parent Merger and the Subsidiary Merger as promptly as practicable and otherwise to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall cooperate fully with the other party hereto to that end.

(b) Consents under ▇▇▇▇▇ Contracts. Without limiting the generality of Section 6.01(a), ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent or approval of all Persons party to a Contract with ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries, to the extent such consent or approval is required in order to consummate the Parent Merger and the Subsidiary Merger or for the Surviving Corporation to receive the benefits of such Contract.

6.02 Shareholder Approval. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to take, in accordance with applicable Law and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Articles and ▇▇▇▇▇ Code, all action necessary to convene an appropriate meeting of its shareholders to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by ▇▇▇▇▇’ shareholders for consummation of the Parent Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby (including any adjournment or postponement, the “▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting”), and to solicit shareholder approval, as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Board shall recommend that ▇▇▇▇▇’ shareholders adopt this Agreement at the ▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting (the “▇▇▇▇▇ Recommendation”), unless with respect to such recommendation, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board, after consultation with independent legal counsel, determines in good faith that it would constitute, or could reasonably be expected to constitute, a breach of its applicable fiduciary duties. The obligation of ▇▇▇▇▇ to hold the ▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting shall not be affected by any Acquisition Proposal or any other event or circumstance.

6.03 Securities Exemption or Registration.

(a) Preparation and Filing. In Sky’s discretion, Sky will prepare pursuant to all applicable Laws a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed by Sky with the SEC in connection with the issuance of Sky Common Shares in the Parent Merger (including the proxy statement and Prospectus and other proxy solicitation materials of ▇▇▇▇▇ constituting a part thereof (the “Proxy Statement”) and all related documents). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, references herein to the Registration Statement, Proxy Statement and Proxy/Prospectus are applicable and operative only to the extent that Sky chooses to register the Sky Common Shares pursuant to the foregoing sentence. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to cooperate, and to cause its Subsidiaries to cooperate, with Sky, its counsel and its accountants, in preparation of the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement; and provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries have cooperated as required above, Sky agrees to file the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement (together, the “Proxy/Prospectus”) with the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable. Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall cause the Proxy/Prospectus to comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, the Securities Act and the rules of the NASDAQ. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agrees to use all reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy/Prospectus to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after filing thereof. Sky also agrees to

use all reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, all necessary state securities Law or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to furnish to Sky all information concerning ▇▇▇▇▇, its Subsidiaries, officers, directors and shareholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with the foregoing. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to its shareholders at the earliest practicable date after the Proxy/Prospectus is declared effective.

(b) Information Supplied. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agrees, as to themselves and their respective Subsidiaries, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by it for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (i) the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement and each amendment or supplement thereto, if any, becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) the Proxy Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto will, at the date of mailing to the ▇▇▇▇▇ shareholders and at the time of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting, as the case may be, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any statement that, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made, will be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or that will omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not false or misleading or necessary to correct any statement in any earlier statement in the Proxy Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky further agrees that if it shall become aware prior to the Effective Date of any information furnished by it that would cause any of the statements in the Proxy Statement to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or to omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading, to promptly inform the other party thereof and to take the necessary steps to correct the Proxy Statement.

(c) Notice of Effectiveness and Changes. Sky agrees to advise ▇▇▇▇▇, promptly after Sky receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of Sky Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or for additional information.

6.04 Press Releases. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agrees that it will not, without the prior approval of the other party, issue any press release or written statement for general circulation relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, except as otherwise required by applicable Law or NASDAQ rules. In the case of any required press release or written statement, Sky shall consult with ▇▇▇▇▇ and shall accept any reasonable changes proposed by ▇▇▇▇▇.

6.05 Access; Confidentiality.

(a) Access to ▇▇▇▇▇ Information. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall, upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, afford Sky and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives, such reasonable access during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to the books, records (including, without limitation, tax returns and work papers of independent auditors), properties, personnel and to such other information as Sky may reasonably request and, during such period, it shall furnish promptly to Sky (i) a copy of each material report, schedule and other document filed by it pursuant to federal or state securities or banking Laws, and (ii) all other information concerning the business, properties and personnel of ▇▇▇▇▇ as Sky may reasonably request.

counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives, such access during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to the books, records (including, without limitation, tax returns and work papers of independent auditors), and to such other information as ▇▇▇▇▇ may reasonably request and, during such period, it shall furnish promptly to ▇▇▇▇▇ (i) a copy of each material report, schedule and other document filed by it pursuant to federal or state securities or banking Laws, and (ii) all other information concerning the business or properties of Sky as ▇▇▇▇▇ may reasonably request.

(c) Use of Information; Confidentiality. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agrees that it will not, and will cause its representatives not to, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.05 (as well as any other information obtained prior to the date hereof in connection with the entering into of this Agreement) for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Except for the use of information in connection with the Registration Statement described in Section 6.03 hereof and any other governmental filings required in order to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, all information (collectively, the “Information”) received by each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be kept in strictest confidence; provided, however, that, subsequent to the filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC, this Section 6.05 shall not apply to information included in the Registration Statement or to be included in the Proxy/Prospectus to be sent to the shareholders of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky under Section 6.03. ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky agree that the Information will be used only for the purpose of completing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the requirements of Law, each party shall keep confidential, and shall cause its representatives to keep confidential, all Information and documents obtained (as well as any other Information obtained prior to the date hereof in connection with the entering into of this Agreement) unless such Information (i) was already known to such party, (ii) becomes available to such party from other sources not known by such party to be bound by a confidentiality obligation, (iii) is disclosed with the prior written approval of the party to which such information pertains, (iv) is or becomes readily ascertainable from published information or trade sources or (v) is such that such party is required by Law or court order to disclose. If either party is required or reasonably believes that it is required to disclose any information described in this Section 6.05(c) by (A) Law, (B) any court of competent jurisdiction or (C) any inquiry or investigation by any Governmental Authority that is lawfully entitled to require any such disclosure, such party (the “Required Party”) shall, so far as it is lawful, notify the other party of such required disclosure on the same day that the Required Party (1) is notified of a request for such disclosure from the relevant Governmental Authority or (2) determines that such disclosure is required, whichever is earlier. Immediately thereafter, and to the extent practical on the same day, and subject to applicable Laws, the parties shall discuss and use their reasonable best efforts to agree as to the mandatory nature, the required timing and the required content of such disclosure. The Required Party shall furnish only that portion of the information described in this Section 6.05 that is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the information described in this Section 6.05 so furnished. In the event that this Agreement is terminated or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall otherwise fail to be consummated, each party shall promptly cause all copies of documents or extracts thereof containing Information and data as to another party hereto to be returned to the party that furnished the same. No investigation by either party of the business and affairs of the other shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, or the conditions to either party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) Subsequent Financial Statements. During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly furnish Sky with copies of all monthly and other interim financial statements produced in the ordinary and usual course of business as the same shall become available.

6.06 Acquisition Proposals. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, agents, advisors and Affiliates not to, solicit or encourage inquiries or proposals with respect to, or engage in any negotiations concerning, or provide any confidential information to, or have any discussions with, any Person relating to, any Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board from (a) making any disclosure to its shareholders if, in the good faith judgment of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board, after having consulted with and considered the advice of outside counsel to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board, failure so to disclose would be a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided further, however, that any such disclosure regarding an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Change in Recommendation unless the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board reaffirms the ▇▇▇▇▇ Recommendation; (b) before the date of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Meeting, providing (or authorizing the provision of) information to, or engaging in (or authorizing) such discussions or negotiations with, any Person who has made an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal received after the date of this Agreement that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.06; or (c) recommending such an Acquisition Proposal to its shareholders if and only to the extent that, in the case of actions referred to in clause (b) and/or (c), (i) such Acquisition Proposal is, or is reasonably expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal, (ii) the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board, after having consulted with and considered the advice of outside counsel to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board, determines in good faith that providing such information or engaging in such negotiations or discussions, or making such recommendation is required in order to discharge the directors’ fiduciary duties to ▇▇▇▇▇ and its shareholders in accordance with applicable Law, and (iii) ▇▇▇▇▇ receives from such Person a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of the Confidentiality Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Superior Proposal” means any Acquisition Proposal by a third party on terms that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board determines in its good faith judgment, after receiving the advice of its financial advisors, to be materially more favorable from a financial point of view to ▇▇▇▇▇ and its shareholders than the Parent Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, after taking into account the likelihood of consummation of such transaction on the terms set forth therein, taking into account all legal, financial (including the financing terms of any such proposal), regulatory and other aspects of such proposal and any other relevant factors permitted under applicable Law. ▇▇▇▇▇ also shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with any parties other than Sky, with respect to any of the foregoing. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly (within three business days) advise Sky following the receipt by ▇▇▇▇▇ of any Acquisition Proposal and the material terms thereof (including the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal), and advise Sky of any developments (including any change in such terms) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal promptly upon the occurrence thereof. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of or release any of its rights under any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including, but not limited to, by obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court having jurisdiction. Nothing contained in this Section 6.06 or any other provision of this Agreement will prohibit ▇▇▇▇▇ or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board from notifying any third party that contacts ▇▇▇▇▇ on an unsolicited basis after the date of this Agreement concerning an Acquisition Proposal of ▇▇▇▇▇’ obligations under this Section 6.06.

6.07 RESERVED

6.09 No Rights Triggered. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that the entering into of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and any other action or combination of actions, or any other transactions contemplated hereby, do not and will not result in the grant of any rights to any Person (a) under the Governing Documents of ▇▇▇▇▇ or (b) under any material Contract to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party except, in each case, as Previously Disclosed or contemplated by this Agreement.

6.10 Conformance of Policies and Practices. Prior to the Effective Date, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall, consistent with GAAP and on a basis mutually satisfactory to it and Sky, modify and change its loan, litigation and real estate valuation policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of reserves) as well as other management and operating policies and practices so as to be applied on a basis that is consistent with that of Sky; provided, however, that ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be obligated to take any such action pursuant to this Section 6.10 involving a valuation adjustment or earnings charge earlier than 30 days prior to the Effective Date, and unless and until Sky acknowledges that all conditions to the obligations of Sky to consummate the Parent Merger have been satisfied and certifies to ▇▇▇▇▇ that Sky’s representations and warranties, subject to Section 5.02, are true and correct as of such date and that Sky is otherwise materially in compliance with this Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇’ representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement shall not be deemed to be untrue or breached in any respect for any purpose as a consequence of any modifications or changes undertaken solely on account of this Section 6.10.

6.11 Transition. ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries shall reasonably cooperate with Sky and its Subsidiaries in order to facilitate an orderly transition of the management of the business of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries to Sky and in order to facilitate the integration of the operations of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky and their Subsidiaries and to permit the coordination of their related operations on a timely basis. To accelerate to the earliest time possible following the Effective Time the realization of synergies, operating efficiencies and other benefits expected to be realized by ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky as a result of the Parent Merger, to the extent reasonably practicable, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to consult with Sky on all strategic and operational matters to the extent such consultation is not in violation of applicable Laws, including Laws regarding the exchange of information and other Laws regarding competition. Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 6.05, Sky, its Subsidiaries, officers, employees, counsel, financial advisors and other representatives shall, upon reasonable written notice to ▇▇▇▇▇, be entitled to review the operations and visit the facilities of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries during normal business hours as may be deemed reasonably necessary by Sky in order to accomplish the foregoing arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement gives Sky, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct or to unreasonably interfere with ▇▇▇▇▇’ operations prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ respective operations.

6.12 RESERVED

6.13 Facilities Optimization. Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to the reasonable advice of ▇▇▇▇▇’ counsel, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall cooperate with Sky and use its reasonable best efforts in the filing of regulatory applications and/or the provision of such notices as may be required in order to permit the optimization of the combined organization’s branch network at the time the Subsidiary Merger occurs.

6.14 RESERVED

6.15 NASDAQ Listing or Notification. As required by NASDAQ, Sky shall file a NASDAQ Notification Form for Listing of Additional Shares and/or Change in the Number of Shares Outstanding, with respect to Sky Common Shares to be issued to the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares in the Parent Merger.

Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ and their respective Subsidiaries shall cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to prepare and file, within 15 days of the execution of this Agreement, all documentation and requests for regulatory approval, to timely effect all filings and to obtain all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Authorities and Regulatory Authorities necessary to consummate the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement. Each of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, with respect to, and shall be provided in advance so as to reasonably exercise its right to review in advance, all material written information submitted to any third party or any Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties hereto agrees to act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Each party hereto agrees that it will consult with the other party hereto with respect to the obtaining of all material permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Authorities or Regulatory Authorities necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each party will keep the other party apprised of the status of material matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Information to be Furnished. Each party agrees, upon request, to furnish the other party with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of such other party or any of its Subsidiaries to any third party, Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority.

6.17 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnity by Sky. Following the Effective Date, Sky shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the present and former directors, officers and employees of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against all costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Costs”) incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of actions or omissions occurring on or prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each, a “Claim”) to the fullest extent that ▇▇▇▇▇ is permitted to indemnify (and advance expenses to) its directors, officers and employees under the Laws of the federal government, the State of Ohio, the Sky Articles and the Sky Code as in effect on the date hereof.

(b) D&O Insurance. For a period of four (4) years from the Effective Time, Sky shall procure directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that serves to reimburse personally the present and former officers and directors of ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries (determined as of the Effective Time) with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from facts or events that occurred before the Effective Time and such insurance will have substantially the same terms as ▇▇▇▇▇’ current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance; provided, however, that in no event will Sky be required to expend on an annual basis, as the cost of maintaining such coverage, more than 200% of the current annual amount for such insurance; provided, further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, then Sky will be obligated to obtain a policy with the best coverage available for a cost up to but not exceeding such amount. The annual amount currently expended by ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries for such insurance coverage is $19,457.

(c) Procedures; Limitations. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 6.17(a), upon learning of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation described above, shall promptly notify Sky thereof; provided that the failure so to notify shall not affect the obligations of Sky under Section 6.17(a) unless and to the extent that Sky is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. In the event of a Claim (whether arising before or after the Effective Time), (i) Sky shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and Sky shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, except that if Sky elects not to assume such defense or counsel for the Indemnified Parties advises that there are issues that raise conflicts of interest between Sky and the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Parties may retain

counsel satisfactory to them, and Sky shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties promptly as statements therefore are received; provided, however, that Sky shall be obligated pursuant to this paragraph (c) to pay for only one firm of counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction unless the use of one counsel for such Indemnified Parties would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter and (iii) Sky shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that Sky shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final and non-appealable, that the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Law. In the event that an Indemnified Party sues to enforce Sky’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Agreement, Sky shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel in advance, provided that such Indemnified Party agrees to repay such amount if a court of competent jurisdiction later concludes that indemnification is not required under the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Legal Successors. If Sky or any of its successors or assigns shall consolidate with or merge into any other entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger or shall transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any entity, then and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Sky shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.17.

6.18 Opportunity of Employment; Employee Benefits.

(a) Retention by Sky. Sky will endeavor in good faith to retain as many current officers and employees as is commercially reasonable given the in-market characteristics of the merger, consistent with the Sky Workforce Redesign Process and Sky’s regional banking template. It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Section 6.18 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a Contract of employment or be construed to give said employees any rights other than as employees “at will” under applicable Law and said employees shall not be deemed to be third-party beneficiaries of this provision.

(b) Participation in Benefit Plans; Credit. From and after the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ employees shall continue to participate in the ▇▇▇▇▇ employee benefit plans in effect at the Effective Time unless and until Sky, in its sole discretion, shall determine that ▇▇▇▇▇ employees shall, subject to applicable eligibility requirements, participate in employee benefit plans of Sky and that all or some of the ▇▇▇▇▇ plans shall be terminated or merged into certain employee benefit plans of Sky. ▇▇▇▇▇ employees continuing to be employed by Sky shall receive credit for service at ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries for eligibility and vesting purposes (but not for benefit calculation purposes) under Sky’s employee benefit plans and shall not be subject to any exclusion or penalty for pre-existing conditions that were covered under ▇▇▇▇▇’ welfare plans immediately prior to the Effective Date, or to any waiting period relating to such coverage, except in each case as otherwise required by applicable Law. ▇▇▇▇▇ employees continuing to be employed by Sky shall transition to Sky’s sick time and vacation policies effective January 1, 2007, shall receive credit for earned and unused sick time and earned and unused vacation up to 80 hours total, and shall be paid for any earned and unused sick time and vacation in excess thereof. Unused sick time and vacation shall be deemed to be earned on a pro rated basis. Any employees terminated by Sky shall be paid for all of their unused vacation and sick time and shall be entitled to elect so-called “COBRA” in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions of IRC Section 4980B(f).

(c) Employees Covered by Certain Agreements. Sky agrees to make all severance, change of control or similar payments to any ▇▇▇▇▇ employees in accordance with the employment and retention Contracts set forth in Section 6.18(c) of ▇▇▇▇▇’ Disclosure Schedule. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or elsewhere, such employee(s) shall receive, at

or within a reasonable period (in no event longer than one month) following the Effective Time or other triggering event, the severance payment to which they are entitled in accordance with the terms of their respective agreements.

(d) Severance. Excepting the individuals covered by employment, severance and retention Contracts set forth in Section 6.18(c) of ▇▇▇▇▇’ Disclosure Schedule, Sky agrees (i) that any officer or employee of ▇▇▇▇▇ or its Subsidiaries (other than any officer or employee of ▇▇▇▇▇ who has a severance agreement with ▇▇▇▇▇) who is terminated after the Effective Date shall be entitled to receive such severance compensation as is payable pursuant to the Sky Financial Group, Inc. Severance Pay Plan, calculated by aggregating periods of service with ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky and (ii) that any officer or employee of ▇▇▇▇▇ or its Subsidiaries who is terminated at the Effective Date shall be entitled to receive such severance compensation as is payable pursuant to the Sky Financial Group, Inc. Severance Pay Plan, calculated as if the terminated employee had become an employee of Sky, by aggregating periods of service with ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky and based on the employee’s position with ▇▇▇▇▇.

6.19 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Material Adverse Effect; Material Breach. Each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sky shall give prompt notice to the other of any fact, event or circumstance known to it that (i) is reasonably likely, individually or taken together with all other facts, events and circumstances known to it, to result in any Material Adverse Effect with respect to it or (ii) would cause or constitute a material breach (without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifier included in any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement) of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein.

(b) Persons Required to Consent to Parent Merger. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly notify Sky of any written notice or other bona fide communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required as a condition to the Parent Merger.

(c) Notice to Insurers. ▇▇▇▇▇ and each of its Subsidiaries shall, prior to the Effective Date, notify its insurers in writing of all known incidents, events and circumstance that would reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim against ▇▇▇▇▇ or its Subsidiaries, as applicable.

(d) Legal and Regulatory Matters. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall notify Sky within two business days of the receipt of any summons, subpoena, complaint, regulatory inquiry or whistleblower notice involving ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries.

(e) Collections. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly notify Sky of the intended filing of collections litigation against any customer of ▇▇▇▇▇ if the principal balance is in excess of $250,000.

6.20 Dividend Coordination. Except for the aggregate distribution provided for in Section 4.01(d)(i), it is agreed by the parties hereto that they will cooperate to assure that as a result of the Parent Merger, for any applicable period, there shall not be a payment of both a Sky and a ▇▇▇▇▇ dividend for ▇▇▇▇▇ shareholders.

6.21 Tax Treatment. Between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, each of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees (a) not to take any actions that would adversely affect the ability of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its shareholders to characterize the Parent Merger as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the IRC, and (b) to take such action as may be reasonably required, if such action may reasonably be taken to reverse the impact of any past actions that would adversely impact the ability for the Parent Merger to be characterized as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the IRC. Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Parent Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the IRC and to obtain the Tax opinion described in Section 7.02(c) hereof. This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.368-2(g). Officers of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall execute

and deliver to counsel delivering such Tax opinion certificates containing appropriate representations at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by such law firm, including the effective date of the Registration Statement and the Effective Date, in connection with their delivery of the opinion, pursuant to Section 7.02(c) hereof, with respect to the Tax treatment of the Parent Merger. Neither Sky nor ▇▇▇▇▇ shall take or cause to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue (or fail to take or cause not to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue) any of such certificates and representations.

6.22 No Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, without the written consent of the other party, each of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not do any act or suffer any omission of any nature whatsoever that would cause any of the representations or warranties made in Article V of this Agreement to become untrue or incorrect, subject to Section 5.02.

6.23 Consents. Each of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use its best efforts to obtain any required consents to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.24 Insurance Coverage. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use reasonable efforts to maintain the policies of insurance listed in the Disclosure Schedule to remain in effect between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Date.

6.25 Correction of Information. Each of Sky and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly correct and supplement any information furnished under this Agreement so that such information shall be correct and complete in all material respects at all times, and shall include all facts necessary to make such information correct and complete in all material respects at all times.

6.26 Supplemental Assurances.

(a) Certificate of ▇▇▇▇▇. On the date the Registration Statement becomes effective and on the Effective Date, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall deliver to Sky a certificate signed by its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer certifying that, to such officers’ knowledge, the information contained in the Registration Statement relating to the business and financial condition and affairs of ▇▇▇▇▇, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(b) Certificate of Sky. On the date the Registration Statement becomes effective and on the Effective Date, Sky shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇ a certificate signed by its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer certifying that, to such officers’ knowledge, the Registration Statement (other than the information contained therein relating to the business and financial condition and affairs of ▇▇▇▇▇) does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

6.27 Regulatory Matters. Sky, ▇▇▇▇▇ and each of their Subsidiaries shall cooperate and each of them agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to remediate any order, decree, agreement, memorandum of understanding or similar agreement by ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries with, or a commitment letter, board resolution or similar submission by ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries to, or supervisory letter from any Regulatory Authority to ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its Subsidiaries, to the satisfaction of such Regulatory Authority.

6.28 Section 16(b).

(a) Approval of Acquisitions by Sky Board. Prior to the Effective Time, Sky shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated hereby and any other acquisitions of Sky equity securities (including derivative securities) in connection with this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, to be approved by the Sky Board or a committee of two or more Non-Employee Directors of Sky (as such term is defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act).

(b) Approval of Dispositions by ▇▇▇▇▇ Board. Prior to the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated hereby and any other dispositions of equity securities of ▇▇▇▇▇ (including derivative securities), in connection with this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to be approved by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Board or a committee of two or more Non-Employee Directors of the Company (as such term is defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act).

(c) Content of Approval. Such approval shall specify: (i) the name of each officer or director, (ii) the number of securities to be acquired or disposed of for each named Person, (iii) in the case of the derivative securities acquired, the material terms of the derivative securities, and (iv) that the approval is granted for purposes of exempting the transaction under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

6.29 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Periods Ending on or before the Closing Date. Sky shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or prior to the Effective Date that are filed after the Effective Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Returns”). The holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date will determine a representative (the “Shareholder Representative”). The Shareholder Representative will be permitted to review and approve such Pre-Closing Tax Returns prior to filing and Sky shall make or cause to be made such revisions as are reasonable requested by the Seller’s Representative. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with all such prior Tax Returns of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date shall not be required to include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax items with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries for any period after the Effective Date.

(b) Straddle Periods and Tax Periods After the Closing Date. Sky shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries for all periods beginning before and ending after the Effective Date (“Post-Closing Tax Returns”). To the extent permitted by applicable law, Sky shall prepare such Tax Returns in a manner consistent with all such prior Tax Returns of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries if a change in the manner of preparing such Tax Returns could reasonably be expected to result in an increase in the Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date. The Shareholder Representative will be permitted to review and approve any such change that could reasonably be expected to result in an increase in the Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date.

(c) Amended Tax Returns. Sky shall not amend and shall not cause to be amended any Tax Returns of ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to result in an increase in the Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date without the prior written consent of the Shareholder Representative.

(d) Audit. Except as otherwise provided herein, Sky shall direct any audit, claim or refund and administrative or judicial proceeding involving any asserted Tax liability regarding ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries (any such audit, claim for refund or proceeding relating to an asserted Tax liability are referred to as a “Contest”). Sky shall promptly inform the Shareholder Representative of any notice of a Contest within five (5) days of the receipt of such notice if such Contest could reasonably be expected to result in an increase of the Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date. Shareholder Representative may elect to direct, through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, any Contest of a Pre-Closing Tax Return

involving any asserted liability that could reasonably be expected to result in an increased Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date. If the Shareholder Representative elects to direct the Contest of an asserted Tax liability of a Pre-Closing Tax Return, Shareholder Representative shall, within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the notice of asserted Tax liability, notify Sky of its intent to do so and Sky shall cooperate and shall cause ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Subsidiaries to cooperate, in each phase of the Contest. If the Shareholder Representative does not elect to direct the Contest of an asserted Tax liability of a Pre-Closing Tax Return or fails to notify Sky of its election as herein provided, Sky may pay, compromise or Contest, at its expense, such asserted liability. Neither Sky nor Shareholder Representative may settle or compromise any Contest involving any asserted liability that could reasonably result in an increase in the Tax liability of the holders of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Date without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

Neither Sky nor ▇▇▇▇▇ may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.01, 7.02 or 7.03, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s failure to use reasonable best efforts to consummate the Parent Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as required by and subject to Section 6.01.

ARTICLE VIII

Termination

8.01 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Parent Merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after shareholder approval:

(d) No Governmental Approval. By ▇▇▇▇▇ or Sky, upon written notice to the other party, if its Board of Directors so determines by vote of a majority of the members of its entire Board, in the event (i) any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction which must grant a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the Parent Merger and such denial has become final and non-appealable; or (ii) any Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Parent Merger, and such order, decree, ruling or other action has become final and non-appealable.

9.07 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and all schedules and exhibits attached hereto represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto with reference to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and this Agreement supersedes any and all other oral or written agreements or understandings heretofore made. Except for Section 6.17 hereof, nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto or their respective successors, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

9.08 Interpretation; Effect. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to a Section of, or Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not part of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” References herein to “transaction contemplated by this Agreement” include the Parent Merger as well as the other transactions contemplated hereby. No rule of construction against the draftsperson shall be applied in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement. Whenever this Agreement shall require a party to take an action, such requirement shall be deemed to constitute an undertaking by such party to take, to cause its Subsidiaries to take, and to use its reasonable best efforts to cause its other Affiliates to take, appropriate action in connection therewith. All references to “dollars” or “$” mean the lawful currency of the United States unless otherwise indicated. Any reference in this Agreement to any Law, rule or regulation shall be deemed to include a reference to any amendments, revisions or successor provisions to such Law, rule or regulation.

9.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.10 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and, unless the effect of such invalidity or unenforceability would prevent the parties from realizing the major portion of the economic benefits of the Parent Merger that they currently anticipate obtaining therefrom, shall not render invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affect the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

9.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of the parties hereunder shall be assigned by either of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Each party hereto further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action or other proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by mail to such party at its address set forth in this Agreement, such service of process to be effective upon acknowledgment of receipt of such registered mail; provided that nothing in this Section 9.12 shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. The consent to jurisdiction set forth in this Section 9.12 shall not constitute a general consent to service of process in the State of Ohio and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this Section 9.12. The parties hereto agree that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.
