3.1.6 Each outstanding share of Town Square Financial Common Stock issued and outstanding at the Merger Election Date, except as provided in 3.1.3, 3.1.4, and 3.1.9, with respect to which an election to receive cash has been effectively made and not revoked or lost, pursuant to Section 3.2 (a “Cash Election”), shall cease to be outstanding and shall be converted into the right to receive a cash payment, without interest, equal to $33.86 (the “Cash Consideration”) (collectively, the “Cash Election Shares”).

3.1.7 Each outstanding share of Town Square Financial Common Stock other than as to which a Cash Election or a Stock Election has been effectively made and not revoked or lost, pursuant to Section 3.2 (collectively, “Non-Election Shares”), shall be converted into the right to receive such Stock Consideration and/or Cash Consideration as shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.2.

3.1.8 Upon the Effective Time, outstanding shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter by operation of this Section 3.1 represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect thereto or any dividends or distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that were declared or made by Town Square Financial on such shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement on or prior to the Effective Time and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time.

Town Square Financial shall give ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares immediate notice upon receipt by Town Square Financial of any such demands for payment of the fair value of such shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock and of withdrawals of such notice and any other related communications (any shareholder duly making such demand being hereinafter called a “Dissenting Shareholder”), and ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall have the right to participate in all discussions, negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands.

3.1.11 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, no dividend or distribution with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share interests, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, through the Exchange Agent, shall pay to each former holder of Town Square Financial Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock, an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest cent and without interest, equal to the product of (i) the fraction of a share to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled and (ii) the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ Capital Market for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Closing Date. For purposes of determining any fractional share interest, all shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock owned by a Town Square Financial shareholder shall be combined so as to calculate the maximum number of whole shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock issuable to such Town Square Financial shareholder.

3.1.12 If ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares changes (or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares Board of Directors sets a related record date that will occur before the Effective Time for a change in) the number or kind of shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock outstanding by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration (and any other dependent items) will be adjusted proportionately to account for such change.

3.2

Election Procedures.

3.2.1 Holders of record of Town Square Financial Common Stock may elect to receive shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock or cash in exchange for their shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock. The total number of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock to be converted into Stock Consideration pursuant to this Section 3.2.1 shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) 0.55 (the “Stock Conversion Number”). All other shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock shall be converted into Cash Consideration.

3.2.2 An election form and other appropriate customary transmittal material in such form as ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and Town Square Financial shall mutually agree (“Election Form”) will be mailed no more than forty (40) Business Days and no less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the Election Deadline or on such earlier date as ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and Town Square Financial shall mutually agree (the “Mailing Date”) to each holder of record of Town Square Financial Common Stock permitting such holder, subject to the allocation and election procedures set forth in this Section 3.2, (i) to specify the number of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock owned by such holder with respect to which such holder desires to make a Cash Election in accordance with the provision of Section 3.1.6, (ii) to specify the number of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock owned by such holder with respect to which such holder desires to make a Stock Election, in accordance with the provision of Section 3.1.5, or (iii) to indicate that such record holder has no preference as to the receipt of cash or ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock for such shares. Holders of record of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock who hold such shares as nominees, trustees or in other representative capacities (a “Representative”) may submit multiple Election Forms, provided that each such Election Form covers all the shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock held by each Representative for a particular beneficial owner. Any shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock with respect to which the holder thereof shall not, as of the Election Deadline (as defined in Section 3.2.3), have made an election by submission to the Exchange Agent of an effective, properly completed Election Form shall be deemed Non-Election Shares. Any Dissenting Shares shall be deemed shares subject to a Cash Election, and with respect to such shares the holders thereof shall in no event receive Stock Consideration. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall make available one or more Election Forms as may reasonably be requested in writing from time to time by all Persons who become holders (or beneficial owners) of Town Square Financial Common Stock between the record date for the initial mailing of Election Forms and the close of business on the business day prior to the Election Deadline (as defined in Section 3.2.3), and Town Square Financial shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform as specified herein.

3.2.3 The term “Election Deadline”, as used below, shall mean 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the later of (i) the date of the Town Square Financial Shareholders Meeting and (ii) the date that ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and Town Square Financial shall agree is as near as practicable to five (5) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date. An election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the Person submitting such Election Form to the Exchange Agent by written notice to the Exchange Agent only if such notice of revocation or change is actually received by the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. The Certificate or Certificates relating to any revoked Election Form shall be promptly returned without charge to the Person submitting the Election Form to the Exchange Agent. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Exchange Agent shall have discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in an Election Form.

3.2.4 No later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the allocation among holders of Town Square Financial Common Stock of rights to receive the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration as set forth in Sections 3.2.5 and 3.2.6.

3.2.5 If the aggregate number of shares of Town Square Financial Common Stock with respect to which Stock Elections shall have been made (the “Stock Election Number”) exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, then all Cash Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and Stock Election Shares of each holder thereof will be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Stock Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder by (y) the fraction, the numerator of which is the Stock Conversion Number and the denominator of which is the Stock Election Number, with the remaining number of such holders’ Stock Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

3.2.6 If the Stock Election Number is less than the Stock Conversion Number (the amount by which the Stock Conversion Number exceeds the Stock Election Number being referred to herein as the “Shortfall Number”), then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and the Non-Election Shares and Cash Election Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(A) If the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and the Non-Election Shares of each holder thereof shall convert into the right to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; or

(B) If the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and Cash Election Shares of each holder thereof shall convert into the right to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Cash Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which (1) the Shortfall Number exceeds (2) the total number of Non-Election Shares and the denominator of which is the total number of Cash Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

3.3

The letter of transmittal shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent. Upon proper surrender of a Certificate for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration and the Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares or any unpaid dividends and distributions, if any, payable to holders of Certificates.

3.3.5 Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Closing Date, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Town Square Financial of the Town Square Financial Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be exchanged for the Merger Consideration and canceled as provided in this Section 3.3.

3.3.6 Return of Exchange Fund. At any time following the nine (9) month period after the Effective Time, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund which had been made available to the Exchange Agent and not disbursed to holders of Certificates (including, without limitation, all interest and other income received by the Exchange Agent in respect of all funds made available to it), and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar laws) with respect to any Merger Consideration that may be payable upon due surrender of the Certificates held by them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Certificate for any Merger Consideration delivered in respect of such Certificate to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or other similar law.

5.7.1 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries are members of the same affiliated group within the meaning of Code Section 1504(a). ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, on behalf of itself and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries, has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax Returns (including, but not limited to, those filed on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis) required to have been filed by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, or requests for extensions to file such returns and reports have been timely filed. All such Tax Returns are true, correct, and complete in all material respects. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries have timely paid or, prior to the Effective Time will pay, all Taxes, whether or not shown on such returns or reports, due or claimed to be due to any Governmental Entity prior to the Effective Time other than Taxes which are being contested in good faith. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries have declared on their Tax Returns all positions taken therein that could give rise to a substantial underpayment of United States Federal Income Tax within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code (or any corresponding provision of state or local laws). The unpaid accrued but unpaid Taxes of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries did not, as of the most recent ▇▇▇▇▇ Financial Statements, exceed the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the face of the most recent ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares balance sheet (rather than in any notes thereto). ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the Subsidiaries are subject to Tax audits in the ordinary course of business. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares management does not believe that an adverse resolution to any of such audits of which it has Knowledge would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries have not been notified in writing by any jurisdiction that the jurisdiction believes that ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries were required to file any Tax Return in such jurisdiction that was not filed. Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries (A) has been a member of a group with which they have filed or been included in a combined, consolidated or unitary income Tax Return other than a group the common parent of which was ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or (B) has any liability for the Taxes of any Person (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries) under Treas. Reg. § 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. law), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise. As of the date hereof, all deficiencies proposed in writing as a result of any audits have been paid or settled. There are no written claims or assessments pending against ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary for any alleged deficiency in any Tax, and neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary has been notified in writing of any proposed Tax claims or assessments against ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries each have duly and timely withheld, collected and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority all amounts required to be so withheld and paid under all applicable laws, and have duly and timely filed all Tax Returns with respect to such withheld Taxes, within the time prescribed under any applicable law. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries have delivered to Town Square Financial true and complete copies of all Tax Returns of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries for taxable periods ending on or after December 31, 2008. Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries is or has been a party to any “reportable transaction,” as defined in Code § 6707A(c)(1) and Treas. Reg. § 1.6011-4(b). Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries has distributed stock of another Person, or has had its stock distributed by another Person, in a transaction that was purported or intended to be governed in whole or in part by Code § 355 or Code § 361. Neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries has been a United States real property holding corporation within the meaning of Code § 897(c)(2) during the applicable period specified in Code § 897(c)(1)(A)(ii).

5.7.2 Except as provided in this Agreement, neither ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares nor any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiaries or Affiliates has taken or agreed to take any action, has failed to take any action or knows of any fact, agreement, plan or other circumstance that could reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

5.8

No Material Adverse Effect.

Except as set forth on ▇▇▇▇▇ Disclosure Schedule 5.8, since September 30, 2012, no event has occurred or circumstance arisen since that date which, in the aggregate, has had or reasonably would be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or Home Federal.

Such existing leases and commitments to lease constitute or will constitute operating leases for both tax and financial accounting purposes and the lease expense and minimum rental commitments with respect to such leases and lease commitments are as disclosed in all material respects in the notes to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Financial Statements.

5.9.2 With respect to all material agreements pursuant to which ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary has purchased securities subject to an agreement to resell, if any, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or such ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary, as the case may be, has a lien or security interest (which to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ Knowledge is a valid, perfected first lien) in the securities or other collateral securing the repurchase agreement, and the value of such collateral equals or exceeds the amount of the debt secured thereby.

5.9.3 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and each ▇▇▇▇▇ Subsidiary currently maintain insurance considered by each of them to be reasonable for their respective operations.

Within a reasonable period after the Closing Date, but not before the applicable Benefit Plan Determination Date, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall provide (or shall cause to be provided by a Subsidiary of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares) to all individuals who are employees of Town Square Financial or any Town Square Financial Subsidiary at the Closing Date and who remain so employed immediately following the Effective Time (the “Continuing Town Square Financial Employees”), compensation, employee benefits and terms and conditions of employment that are substantially similar to those provided by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to similarly situated employees of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, none of the provisions contained herein shall (i) operate to duplicate any benefit provided to any Continuing Town Square Financial Employees or the funding of any such benefit, (ii) be construed to limit the ability of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to review employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements from time to time, to make such changes as ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion or to terminate such employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements provided that no such action shall discriminate against Continuing Town Square Financial Employees relative to similarly situated employees of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, (iii) create third party rights against ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares will use best efforts to cause its insurance providers to waive all pre-existing condition limitations and proof of insurability provisions (to the extent such limitations and provisions did not apply to a pre-existing condition under Town Square Financial’s equivalent plan) and eligibility waiting periods under such plans that would otherwise be applicable to newly-hired employees for all Continuing Town Square Financial Employees; provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the ability of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to amend or enter into new or different employee benefit plans or arrangements provided such plans or arrangements treat the Continuing Town Square Financial Employees in a substantially similar manner as employees of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares are treated. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares will cause its insurance providers to honor under such plans any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Continuing Town Square Financial Employees and their covered dependents during the portion of the plan year prior to the relevant Benefit Plan Determination Date. Under all ▇▇▇▇▇ Benefit Plans, service with Town Square Financial or a Town Square Financial Subsidiary shall be deemed to be service with ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares for eligibility and vesting purposes only, but not for purposes of benefit accrual.

7.6.3 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares 401(k) Plan Participation. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares will use its best efforts to cause each Continuing Town Square Financial Employee to be eligible to participate in the ▇▇▇▇▇ 401(k) plan on the day after or as soon as practicable after the Benefit Plan Determination Date for the Town Square Financial 401(k) Plan. All rights to participate in the ▇▇▇▇▇ 401(k) Plan are subject to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ right to amend or terminate the ▇▇▇▇▇ 401(k) plan in its sole and absolute discretion and are subject to the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇ 401(k) plan including, but not limited to, the eligibility and vesting provisions of such plan.

7.6.4 Welfare Benefits. Each Continuing Town Square Financial Employee who remains employed on the Benefit Plan Determination Date shall be eligible to participate in group hospitalization, medical, dental, life, disability and other welfare benefit plans and programs available to similarly-situated employees of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, subject to the terms of such plans and programs, and subject to complying with eligibility requirements of the respective plans and programs. With respect to any welfare benefit plan or program of Town Square Financial that ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides benefits of the same type or class as a corresponding plan or program maintained by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall, unless financially burdensome or resulting in an excise tax payable by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares under Code Section 4980D, continue such Town Square Financial plan or program in effect for the benefit of the Continuing Town Square Financial Employees until the later of the open enrollment period with respect to the year following the year in which the Merger occurs or each Continuing Town Square Financial Employee becomes eligible to become participants in the corresponding benefit plan or program maintained by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares (and, with respect to any such plan or program, subject to complying with eligibility requirements and subject to the right of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to terminate or amend such plan or program) so that each Continuing Town Square Financial Employee employed by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares has no gap in coverage under any hospitalization, medical, dental, life, disability or other welfare plan or program. For purposes of all employee welfare benefit plans, programs and agreements maintained by or contributed to by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall treat, and in the case of an insured plan, shall use its best efforts to cause the providers of each such plan, program or arrangement to treat the service with Town Square Financial prior to the Closing Date of any Continuing Town Square Financial Employee (to the same extent such service is recognized under analogous plans, programs or arrangements of Town Square Financial prior to the Closing) as service rendered to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares for all purposes; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of such benefit available to any Continuing Town Square Financial Employee. Persons who were employed by Town Square Financial or any Affiliate and who were entitled to continue health coverage under COBRA or any similar state law shall continue to be entitled to COBRA coverage and coverage under similar state law under the Town Square Financial Benefit Plans that are health plans and, in the event of a termination of such plans, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall continue to provide COBRA coverage.

7.6.5 Paid Time Off Programs. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares will give each Continuing Town Square Financial Employee credit, for purposes of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ vacation and/or other paid leave benefit programs, for such individual’s accrued and unpaid vacation and/or paid leave balance with Town Square Financial as of the Closing Date.

7.6.6 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to Honor Agreements. Subject to any required regulatory approval or satisfaction of a condition in any regulatory approval, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares agrees to comply with the contractual terms of all employment agreements, change in control agreements, severance agreements, deferred compensation agreements and consulting agreements that Town Square Financial has with its current and former employees and which have been identified in Town Square Financial Disclosure Schedule 4.9.1, except to the extent any such agreements shall be superseded or terminated at the Closing Date or following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything contained in the agreements set forth on Town Square Financial Disclosure Schedules 4.9.1 or in this Agreement, no payment shall be made under any employment, deferred compensation, change of control, severance contract, stock option plan or plan that would constitute a “parachute payment” (as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Code), and to the extent any such payment would constitute a “parachute payment,” the payment will be reduced to $1.00 less than the amount that would be considered a “parachute payment.”

Except for the agreements described in the preceding sentences of this Section 7.6.6 and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, subject to and following the occurrence of the Effective Time, the Town Square Financial Benefit Plans shall, in the sole and absolute discretion of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, be frozen, terminated or merged into comparable plans of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, effective at such time as ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

7.6.7 No Guarantee of Employment. Except to the extent of commitments herein or other contractual commitments, if any, specifically made or assumed by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares hereunder or by operation of law, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall have no obligation arising from and after the Closing Date to continue in its employ or in any specific job or to provide to any specified level of compensation or any incentive payments, benefits or perquisites to any Person who is an employee of Town Square Financial as of the Closing Date. Each Person who is an employee of Town Square Financial as of the Closing Date and who is terminated by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares for a reason other than cause within twelve (12) months subsequent to the Closing Date or is not offered employment with ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares as of the Effective Time or resigns for good reason, excluding those employees who are entitled to benefits under change of control arrangements, shall be entitled to severance benefits pursuant to Town Square Financial’s severance plan or policy, or ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ current severance plan or policy, if such payments would be more favorable to such Person.

7.6.8 Employment Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and Home Federal will offer ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ an executive level position with ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and Home Federal Savings and Loan Association, and the form of the employment agreement is set forth in ▇▇▇▇▇ Disclosure Schedule 7.6.8.

7.7

Directors and Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

7.7.1 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall maintain in effect for six (6) years following the Effective Time, the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by Town Square Financial (provided, that ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares may substitute therefor policies or a six-year tail policy of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions which are not materially less favorable in the aggregate) with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares be required to expend pursuant to this Section 7.7.1 more than an amount equal to 175% of the current annual amount expended by Town Square Financial with respect to such insurance, as set forth in Town Square Financial Disclosure Schedule 7.7.1 (the “Maximum Amount”); provided, further, that if the amount of the aggregate premium necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall maintain the most favorable policies of directors and officers insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Amount. In connection with the foregoing, Town Square Financial agrees in order for ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to fulfill its agreement to provide directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies for six (6) years to provide such insurer or substitute insurer with such representations as such insurer may request with respect to the reporting of any prior claims.

7.7.2 In addition to Section 7.7.1, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall, from and after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law and the current provisions of the articles of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of Town Square Financial and the Town Square Financial Subsidiaries (to the extent not prohibited by federal law), indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Person who is now, or who has been at any time before the date hereof or who becomes before the Effective Time, an officer or director of Town Square Financial or any Town Square Financial Subsidiary (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, investigative or administrative (each, a “Claim”) in which an Indemnified Party is or is threatened to be made a party or witness in whole or in part or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such Person is or was a director or officer of Town Square Financial or any Town Square Financial Subsidiary or was prior to the Effective Time serving at the request of any such party as a director, officer, employee, trustee or partner of another Person or benefit plan if such Claim pertains to any matter of fact arising, existing, or occurring before the Effective Time (including, without limitation, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before, or after, the Effective Time. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 7.7.2 upon learning of any Claim, shall notify ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares (but the failure so to notify ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 7.7.2, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares). In the event of any such Claim (whether arising before or after the Effective Time) (1) ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall have the right to assume the defense thereof (in which event the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter) and upon such assumption ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except that if ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares elects not to assume such defense, or counsel for the Indemnified Parties reasonably advises the Indemnified Parties that there are or may be (whether or not any have yet actually arisen) issues which raise conflicts of interest between ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them, and ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties, (2) except to the extent otherwise required due to conflicts of interest, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall be obligated pursuant to this paragraph to pay for only one (1) firm of counsel for all Indemnified Parties unless there is a conflict of interest that necessitates more than one law firm, and (3) ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall also advance expenses as incurred in each case upon receipt of an undertaking from the Indemnified Party to repay such advanced expenses if it is determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

7.7.3 In the event that either ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or 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 ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.7.

7.7.4 The obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares provided under this Section 7.7 are intended to be enforceable against ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares directly by the Indemnified Parties and shall be binding on all respective successors and permitted assigns of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares.

7.8

Stock Listing.

▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares agrees to file a notification form prior to the Effective Time for the listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market (or such other national securities exchange on which the shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock shall be listed as of the Closing Date) of the shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock to be issued in the Merger.

7.9

Reservation of Stock.

▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares agrees at all times from the date of this Agreement until the Merger Consideration has been paid in full to reserve a sufficient number of shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares Common Stock to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.

At mutually agreed upon times following execution of this Agreement, representatives of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall be permitted to meet with the employees of Town Square Financial and the Town Square Financial Subsidiaries to discuss employment opportunities with ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, provided that representatives of Town Square Financial shall be permitted to attend any such meeting. From and after the first date on which all Regulatory Approvals (and waivers, if applicable) and the Town Square Financial Shareholder Approval (disregarding any waiting period) have been obtained, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall also be permitted to conduct training sessions outside of normal business hours or at other times as Town Square Financial may agree, with the employees of Town Square Financial and the Town Square Financial Subsidiaries and may conduct such training seminars at any branch location of Town Square Bank; provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares will in good faith attempt to schedule such training sessions in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with Town Square Bank’ normal business operations.

Assuming Town Square Financial delivers to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares in a reasonably timely fashion prior to the Effective Time accurate information regarding those officers and directors of Town Square Financial subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act (the “Town Square Financial Insiders”), the Board of Directors of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares and of Town Square Financial, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for the purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall reasonably promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Town Square Financial Common Stock by the Town Square Financial Insiders, and any acquisitions of ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock, or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 3.1, by any Town Square Financial Insiders who, immediately following the Merger, will be officers or directors of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be exempt from liability pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

10.1.6 By either party if (i) final action has been taken by a Bank Regulator whose approval is required in order to satisfy the conditions to the parties’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as set forth in Article IX, which final action (x) has become unappealable and (y) does not approve this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree, ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger, the Company Merger or the Bank Merger, and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and unappealable;

10.1.7 By ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares if Town Square Financial has received a Superior Proposal and Town Square Financial has entered into an acquisition agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal or the Board of Directors of Town Square Financial has withdrawn its recommendation of this Agreement, has failed to make such recommendation in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus, or has modified or qualified its recommendation in a manner adverse to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares; or

10.1.8 By Town Square Financial if Town Square Financial has received a Superior Proposal and the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) of Town Square Financial has made a determination to accept such Superior Proposal; provided that Town Square Financial shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1.8 and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal until the expiration of three (3) Business Days following ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ receipt of written notice advising ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares that Town Square Financial has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (and including a copy thereof with all accompanying documentation, if in writing) identifying the Person making the Superior Proposal and stating whether Town Square Financial intends to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”). After providing such Notice of Superior Proposal, Town Square Financial shall provide a reasonable opportunity to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares during the five (5) Business Day period to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Town Square Financial to proceed with the Merger on such adjusted terms. Any material amendment of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Superior Proposal and Town Square Financial shall be required to comply again with the requirements of this Section 10.1.8; provided, however, that references to the three (3) Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to a two (2) Business Day period.

10.1.9 By Town Square Financial, if the Town Square Financial’s Board of Directors determines by a vote of the majority of the members of the entire Town Square Financial’s Board, at any time during the five-day period commencing with the Determination Date, if both of the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) The number obtained by dividing the Average Closing Price by the Starting Price (as defined below) (the “▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares Ratio”) shall be less than 0.85; and

(ii) the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares Ratio shall be less than (y) the number obtained by dividing the Final Index Price by the Index Price on the Starting Date (each as defined below) and subtracting 0.20 from the quotient in this clause (ii) (y) (such number in this clause (ii) (y) being referred to herein as the “Index Ratio”; subject, however, to the following three sentences. If the Town Square Financial elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 10.1.9, it shall give written notice to ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares (provided that such notice of election to terminate may be withdrawn at any time within the aforementioned five-day period). During the five-day period commencing with its receipt of such notice, ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall have the option to increase the consideration in the form of Stock Consideration, Cash Consideration or a mixture thereof, at the sole discretion of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, to be received by the holders of Town Square Financial Common Stock hereunder, by adjusting the Exchange Ratio (calculated to the nearest one one-thousandth) to equal the lesser of (x) a number (rounded to the nearest one one-thousandth) obtained by dividing (A) the product of the Starting Price, 0.20 and the Exchange Ratio by (B) the Average Closing Price and (y) a number (rounded to the nearest one one-thousandth) obtained by dividing (A) the product of the Index Ratio and the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect) by (B) the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares Ratio. If ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares so elects within such five-day period, it shall give prompt written notice to Town Square Financial of such election and the revised Exchange Ratio, whereupon no termination shall have occurred pursuant to this Section 10.1.9 and this Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms (except as the Exchange Ratio shall have been so modified.)

For purposes of this Section 10.1.9, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated.

“Acquisition Transaction” shall mean (i) a merger or consolidation, or any similar transaction, involving the relevant companies, (ii) a purchase, lease or other acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of the relevant companies, (iii) a purchase or other acquisition (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange or otherwise) of securities representing 10% or more of the voting power of the relevant companies; or (iv) agreement or commitment to take any action referenced above.

“Determination Date” shall mean the first date on which all Regulatory Approvals have been received (disregarding any waiting period).

(C) As a condition of ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares’ willingness, and in order to induce ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares to enter into this Agreement, and to reimburse ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares for incurring the costs and expenses related to entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Town Square Financial hereby agrees to pay ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, and ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares shall be entitled to payment of, $600,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same day funds on the earlier of (x) the date of termination or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next following Business Day or (y) within three (3) Business Days after written demand for payment is made by ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares, as applicable, following the occurrence of any of the events set forth below:

(D) Town Square Financial and ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, neither party would enter into this Agreement. The amounts payable by Town Square Financial and ▇▇▇▇▇ Bankshares pursuant to this Section 10.2.2 constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty and shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of such party in the event of termination of this Agreement on the bases specified in such section.

10.3
