ARTICLE II

THE MERGER

2.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, IIBK will merge with and into Purchaser Bank (the “Merger”) at the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of IIBK shall cease. Purchaser Bank shall be the surviving entity (hereinafter sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Bank”) in the Merger and shall continue to be governed by the MBA and its name and separate existence, with all of its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises, shall continue unaffected by the Merger.

2.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place by the electronic (PDF), facsimile or overnight courier exchange of executed documents or at a location and at a time as agreed to by the parties hereto on the date designated by Purchaser within fifteen (15) days following satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), or such later date as the parties may otherwise agree (the “Closing Date”).

2.3 Effective Time. In connection with the Closing, Purchaser Bank and IIBK shall duly execute and deliver articles of merger (and such other documents as required by law) to the MDOB and the IDF, to the extent required by the relevant provision of the MBA and the IBA, respectively (collectively, the “Articles of Merger”). The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Articles of Merger are duly filed with and endorsed by the MDOB or at such later date or time as Purchaser Bank and IIBK agree and specify in the Articles of Merger (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”).

2.4 Effects of the Merger. The Merger will have the effects set forth in this Agreement, in the MBA and the IBA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and

subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, Purchaser Bank shall possess all of the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of IIBK and be subject to all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of IIBK. Additionally, all assets, rights, interests, privileges, powers, franchises and property (real, personal and mixed) of IIBK shall be automatically transferred to and vested in the Surviving Bank by virtue of the Merger without any deed or other document of transfer. At the Effective Time, each deposit account holder of Purchaser Bank or of IIBK immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become a depositor of the Surviving Bank. The main banking office of the Surviving Bank shall be ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The branch offices of Purchaser Bank and the branch offices of IIBK that are in lawful operation prior to at the Effective Time shall be, and shall be operated as, branch offices of the Surviving Bank.

2.5 Effect on Outstanding Shares of IIBK Common Stock.

(a) By virtue of the Merger, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of IIBK Common Stock issued and outstanding at the Effective Time, other than Excluded Shares, shall become and be converted into the right to receive 0.50 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Purchaser Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor will be issued in the Merger; instead, Purchaser shall pay to each holder of IIBK Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest cent, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Average Closing Price.

(c) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Purchaser Common Stock or any other authorized capital stock of the Purchaser shall have been changed into a different number of shares or into a different class by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, or exchange of shares, or there shall be any extraordinary dividend or distribution paid, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted appropriately to provide the holders of IIBK Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

(d) As of the Effective Time, except for Dissenting Shares, each Excluded Share shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no exchange or payment shall be made with respect thereto. All shares of Purchaser Common Stock that are held by IIBK, if any, other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, shall be canceled and shall constitute authorized but unissued shares.

2.6 Dissenter’s Rights. Each outstanding share of IIBK Common Stock, the holder of which has perfected the right to dissent under the IBA and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right as of the Effective Time (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration hereunder and shall be entitled only to such rights as are available to such holder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the IBA. Each holder of a Dissenting Share shall be entitled to receive the value of such Dissenting Share held

by him in accordance with the applicable provisions of the IBA; provided, that such holder complies with the procedures contemplated by and set forth in the applicable provisions of the IBA. If any holder of any Dissenting Share shall effectively withdraw or lose such holder’s dissenter’s rights under the applicable provisions of the IBA, each such Dissenting Share shall be exchangeable for the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

2.7 Exchange Procedures.

(a) At or prior to the Effective Time, Purchaser shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with American Stock Transfer & Trust Co. (the “Exchange Agent”), pursuant to an agreement entered into prior to the Closing, for the benefit of the holders of record of shares of IIBK Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.7, (i) the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock sufficient to deliver the aggregate Merger Consideration and (ii) any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.5(b), and Purchaser shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely deliver the Merger Consideration. Appropriate transmittal materials (“Letter of Transmittal”) shall be mailed as soon as practicable after the Effective Time to each holder of record of IIBK Common Stock. A Letter of Transmittal will be deemed properly completed only if the completed Letter of Transmittal is accompanied by one or more Certificates representing IIBK Common Stock (or customary affidavits and, if required by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.7(h), indemnification regarding the loss or destruction of such Certificates or the guaranteed delivery of such Certificates) representing all shares of IIBK Common Stock to be converted thereby.

(b) At and after the Effective Time, each Certificate shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and as to Dissenting Shares, shall represent only the right to receive applicable payments as set forth in Section 2.6. IIBK shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform its obligations as specified herein.

(c) The Letter of Transmittal shall (i) 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, (ii) be in a form and contain any other provisions as Purchaser may reasonably determine and (iii) include instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon the proper surrender of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate, or, at the election of Purchaser, a statement reflecting shares issued in book entry form, representing that number of whole shares of Purchaser Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.5(a) and a check in the amount equal to any cash in lieu of fractional shares such holder is entitled to pursuant to Section 2.5(b) and any dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled. Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. As soon as practicable following receipt of the properly completed Letter of Transmittal and any necessary accompanying documentation, the Exchange Agent shall distribute Purchaser Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided herein. The

Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to the shares of Purchaser Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect to such shares for the account of the Persons entitled thereto. If there is a transfer of ownership of any shares of IIBK Common Stock not registered in the transfer records of IIBK, the Merger Consideration shall be issued to the transferee thereof if the Certificates representing such IIBK Common Stock are presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser and the Exchange Agent, to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.

(d) No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Purchaser Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be remitted to any Person entitled to receive shares of Purchaser Common Stock hereunder until such Person surrenders his or her Certificates in accordance with this Section 2.7. Upon the surrender of such Person’s Certificates, such Person shall be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions, without interest thereon, which subsequent to the Effective Time had become payable but not paid with respect to shares of Purchaser Common Stock represented by such Person’s Certificates.

(e) The stock transfer books of IIBK shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer records of IIBK of any shares of IIBK Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to Purchaser, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.7.

(f) Any portion of the aggregate amount of cash to be paid in lieu of fractions of a share pursuant to Section 2.5, any dividends or other distributions to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7 or any proceeds from any investments thereof that remains unclaimed by the holders of IIBK Common Stock for six months after the Effective Time shall be repaid by the Exchange Agent to Purchaser upon the written request of Purchaser. After such request is made, each holder of IIBK Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Section 2.7 shall look only to Purchaser for the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect of each share of IIBK Common Stock such stockholder holds, as determined pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Agreement, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement (or any Affiliate thereof) shall be liable to any former holder of IIBK Common Stock for any amount delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

(g) Purchaser and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon IIBK’s stock transfer books to establish the identity of those Persons entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. IIBK shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform its obligations as specified herein. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Certificate, Purchaser and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deposit any Merger

Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

(h) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as the Exchange Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.5.

2.8 Effect on Outstanding Shares of Purchaser and Purchaser Bank Common Stock. At the Effective Time, and except as provided in Section 2.5(d), each share of Purchaser Common Stock and each share of Purchaser Bank Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Purchaser and Purchaser Bank, respectively, and shall not be affected by the Merger.

2.9 Directors of Surviving Bank After Effective Time. Immediately after the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, the directors of the Surviving Bank shall consist of the directors of Purchaser Bank serving immediately prior to the Effective Time.

2.10 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The articles of incorporation of Purchaser Bank, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Bank until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law and the terms thereof. The bylaws of Purchaser Bank, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Bank until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law and the terms of such bylaws.

2.11 Treatment of Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each option to acquire shares of IIBK Common Stock that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior thereto (“IIBK Stock Option”) pursuant to the Idaho Independent Bank 2004 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan and Idaho Independent Bank 2016 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (together, the “IIBK Equity Plans”) shall automatically become vested and shall be cancelled and, subject to Purchaser’s receipt of an option surrender agreement in the form set forth in the Purchaser’s Disclosure Letter, converted into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount, less required withholding taxes, equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of IIBK Common Stock subject to IIBK Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the amount by which the Option Payment Amount exceeds the exercise price of such IIBK Stock Option. If the exercise price of a IIBK Stock Option is greater than the Option Payment Amount, then at the Effective Time such IIBK Stock Option shall be cancelled without any payment made in exchange therefor. Such cash payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the Closing Date.

2.12 Alternative Structure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, Purchaser or Purchaser Bank may specify that the structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be revised and the parties shall enter into such alternative transactions as Purchaser or Purchaser Bank may reasonably

determine to effect the purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that such revised structure shall not (i) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration, (ii) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) adversely limit or impact the qualification of the Merger as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the IRC.

Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any officer, director or employee of IIBK or any of the Subsidiaries or any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other representative retained by IIBK or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.1 by IIBK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the adoption and approval of this Agreement by IIBK’s stockholders at the IIBK Stockholder Meeting, this Section 5.1(a) shall not prohibit IIBK from furnishing non-public information regarding IIBK and its Subsidiaries to, or entering into discussions with, any Person in response to an Acquisition Proposal that is submitted to IIBK by such Person (and not withdrawn) if (1) the Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably expected to result in a Superior Proposal, (2) IIBK has not breached any of the covenants set forth in this Section 5.1, (3) IIBK’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to violate the directors’ fiduciary obligations to IIBK’s stockholders under applicable law, and (4) prior to furnishing any non-public information to, or entering into discussions with, such Person, IIBK gives Purchaser and Purchaser Bank written notice of the identity of such Person and of IIBK’s intention to furnish non-public information to, or enter into discussions with, such Person and IIBK receives from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement on terms no more favorable to such Person than the confidentiality agreement between Purchaser and IIBK is to Purchaser.

(b) IIBK will notify Purchaser orally within one (1) business day and in writing (within two (2) business days) of receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, any request for non-public information that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry with respect to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, including, in each case, the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, the request or inquiry and the terms and conditions thereof, and shall provide to Purchaser any written materials received by IIBK or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. IIBK will keep Purchaser informed of any developments with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry promptly orally (within one (1) calendar day) and in writing (within two (2) calendar days) upon the occurrence thereof.

(c) IIBK will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

Prior to the Closing, IIBK, on the one hand, and Purchaser and Purchaser Bank, on the other hand, shall promptly advise the other party orally and in writing to the extent that it has Knowledge of (i) any representation or warranty made by it contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (ii) the failure by it to comply in any material respect with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement.

5.3 Access and Information.

(a) Upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable laws relating to the exchange of information, each of Purchaser and Purchaser Bank, on the one hand, and IIBK, on the other hand, for purposes of verifying the representations and warranties of the other and preparing for integration of the parties and other matters contemplated by this Agreement, shall (and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to) afford to the other party and its representatives (including, without limitation, officers and employees of the other party and its Affiliates and counsel, accountants and other professionals retained by the other party) such reasonable access during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to the books, records, contracts, properties, personnel, information technology services and to such other information relating to the other party and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested, except where such materials relate to (i) matters involving this Agreement, (ii) pending or threatened litigation or investigations if, in the opinion of counsel, the presence of such designees would or might adversely affect the confidential nature of, or any privilege relating to, the matters being discussed, (iii) matters involving an Acquisition Proposal or (iv) confidential supervisory information; provided, however, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made in this Agreement. Neither party nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of its

customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the entity in possession or control of such information or contravene any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement.

5.5 Anti-Takeover Provisions. IIBK and its Subsidiaries shall take all steps required by any relevant federal or state law or regulation or under any relevant agreement or other document to exempt or continue to exempt Purchaser, Purchaser Bank, the Agreement and the Merger from any provisions of an anti-takeover nature in IIBK’s or its Subsidiaries’ Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, or similar organizational documents, and the provisions of any federal or state anti-takeover laws.

(a) IIBK will submit to its stockholders this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by stockholders to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. In furtherance of that obligation, IIBK will take, in accordance with applicable law and its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “IIBK Stockholder Meeting”) as promptly as practicable to consider and vote on approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions provided for in this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the IIBK Stockholder Meeting, IIBK’s Board of Directors may, if it concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors) that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law, withdraw or modify or change in a manner adverse to Purchaser its recommendation that the stockholders of IIBK approve this Agreement (a “Change of Recommendation”); provided that prior to any such Change of Recommendation, IIBK shall have complied in all material respects with

Section 5.1, given Purchaser and Purchaser Bank written notice promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) advising it of the decision of IIBK’s Board of Directors to take such action and, if the decision relates to an Acquisition Proposal, given Purchaser and Purchaser Bank the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, including the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal; and provided, further, that if the decision relates to an Acquisition Proposal: (i) IIBK shall have given Purchaser and Purchaser Bank three (3) Business Days after delivery of such notice to Purchaser and Purchaser Bank to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement (or make another proposal) and if Purchaser and Purchaser Bank propose to revise the terms of this Agreement, IIBK shall have negotiated in good faith with Purchaser and Purchaser Bank with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal; and (ii) IIBK’s Board of Directors shall have determined in good faith, after considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to any proposals, amendments or modifications made or agreed to by Purchaser and Purchaser Bank, if any, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. If IIBK’s Board of Directors does not make the determination that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and thereafter determines not to withdraw, modify or change its recommendation that the stockholders of IIBK approve this Agreement in connection with a new Acquisition Proposal, the procedures referred to above shall apply anew and shall also apply to any subsequent withdrawal, modification or change. In the event of any material revisions to the Acquisition Proposal that result in terms that are less favorable to IIBK, IIBK shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Purchaser and Purchaser Bank and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.8(b) with respect to such new written notice, except that the three (3) Business Day period referred to above shall be reduced to two (2) Business Days.

IIBK will furnish to Purchaser the information required to be included in the Registration Statement with respect to its business and affairs and shall have the right to review and consult with Purchaser and approve the form of, and any characterizations of such information included in, the Registration Statement prior to its being filed with the SEC.

Purchaser will advise IIBK, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of Purchaser Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by

the SEC for amendment of the Proxy Statement-Prospectus or the Registration Statement. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Purchaser or IIBK, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Purchaser or IIBK that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement-Prospectus so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and, to the extent required by law, rules or regulations, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by Purchaser with the SEC and disseminated by IIBK to the stockholders of IIBK.

(b) Purchaser shall also take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the Merger and each of IIBK and Purchaser shall furnish all information concerning it and the holders of IIBK Common Stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

Each of IIBK, Purchaser and Purchaser Bank shall give prompt notice to the other party of any notice or other communication from any third party alleging that the consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.11 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) Purchaser shall honor IIBK Benefit Plans set forth in IIBK’s Disclosure Letter in accordance with the terms of such IIBK Benefit Plans, except to the extent an alternative treatment is set forth in this Section 5.11 or in Section 2.11 of this Agreement. Following the Effective Time, Purchaser shall maintain or cause to be maintained employee benefit plans and compensation opportunities for the benefit of all Persons who are employees of IIBK and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time and whose employment is not specifically terminated at or prior to the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) that, in the aggregate are substantially comparable to the employee benefit and compensation opportunities that are generally made available to similarly situated employees of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries;

provided, however, in no event shall any Continuing Employee be eligible to participate in any frozen plan of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries.

(b) At the sole discretion of Purchaser, Purchaser may maintain IIBK’s health and welfare plans through the end of the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser determines to terminate one or more of IIBK’s health and/or welfare plans, then, at the request of Purchaser made at least thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Time, IIBK shall adopt resolutions, to the extent required, providing that one or more of IIBK’s health and welfare plans (excluding any plans that are mutually agreed to in writing between the parties) will be terminated effective immediately prior to the Effective Time (or such later date as requested by Purchaser in writing or as may be required to comply with any applicable advance notice or other requirements contained in such plans) and shall arrange for termination of all corresponding insurance policies, service agreements and related arrangements effective on the same date to the extent not prohibited by the terms of such arrangements or applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no coverage of any of the Continuing Employees or their dependents shall terminate under any of IIBK’s health and welfare plans prior to the time such Continuing Employees or their dependents, as applicable, become eligible to participate in the health plans, programs and benefits common to all employees of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries and their dependents and, consequently, no Continuing Employee shall experience a gap in coverage. Continuing Employees who become covered under health plans, programs and benefits of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid under IIBK’s health plan for the plan year in which coverage commences under Purchaser’s health plan and shall not be subject to any pre-existing conditions under any such plans. Terminated IIBK employees and qualified beneficiaries will have the right to continued coverage under group health plans of Purchaser in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c) Purchaser shall cause each Purchaser Benefit Plan in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accrual under the Purchaser 401(k) Plan for 2019 employer contributions) under the Purchaser Benefit Plans the service of such employees with IIBK to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by IIBK; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized: (i) to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits under any of the Purchaser Benefit Plans or (ii) to the extent, at the sole discretion of Purchaser, the cash value of unused paid time-off is paid to Continuing Employees at the Effective Time. The value of each IIBK employee’s unused paid time-off is set forth in IIBK’s Disclosure Letter. This Agreement shall not be construed to limit the ability of Purchaser to terminate the employment of any IIBK employee or to review any employee benefit plan or program from time to time and to make such changes (including terminating any such plan or program) as Purchaser deems appropriate.

(d) IIBK shall take all necessary and appropriate actions to cause IIBK 401(k) Plan to be frozen as to future contributions effective immediately prior to the Effective Time and Purchaser shall take all necessary and appropriate actions to allow the Continuing Employees to participate in Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan on the first day immediately following the Effective Time.

Alternatively, if requested in writing by Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days prior to Closing, IIBK will also take all necessary steps to terminate IIBK 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time, and if further requested, shall prepare and submit a request to the IRS for a favorable determination letter on termination. If Purchaser requests that IIBK apply for a favorable determination letter, then prior to the Effective Time, IIBK shall take all such actions as are necessary (determined in consultation with Purchaser) to submit the application for favorable determination letter in advance of the Effective Time, and following the Effective Time, Purchaser shall use its best efforts in good faith to obtain such favorable determination letter as promptly as possible (including, but not limited to, making such changes to IIBK 401(k) Plan as may be required by the IRS as a condition to its issuance of a favorable determination letter). Prior to the Effective Time, IIBK, and following the Effective Time, Purchaser, will adopt such amendments to IIBK 401(k) Plan to effect the provisions of this Section 5.11(d). In the event Purchaser requests IIBK to submit an application to the IRS for a determination letter, IIBK 401(k) Plan participants who are terminated at or after the Closing, but prior to the receipt of the IRS determination letter, may elect to receive a distribution from IIBK 401(k) Plan upon termination of their employment. Purchaser shall take any and all actions as may be required to permit Continuing Employees to roll over their account balances in IIBK’s 401(k) Plan into Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan.

(e) Purchaser agrees that each full-time IIBK employee who is involuntarily terminated by Purchaser (other than for “Cause” as determined by Purchaser) within six months following the Effective Time and who is not covered by a separate severance, change in control or employment agreement shall, upon executing an appropriate release in the form reasonably determined by Purchaser, receive a severance payment equal to two weeks of base pay (at the rate in effect on the termination date) for each year of service at IIBK, with a minimum equal to four weeks of base pay and a maximum equal to fifty-two (52) weeks, as determined in accordance with Purchaser’s severance policy, as set forth in Purchaser's Disclosure Letter. For purposes of calculating the number of years of service, fractional years of service shall be rounded up or down to the nearest full month. For purposes of calculating base pay, IIBK employees who are paid on an hourly basis shall be deemed to have a base pay equal to the employee’s average weekly compensation over the two months prior to the termination date; provided that, in no event shall an employee’s base pay for this purpose be less than the employee’s base pay with IIBK as in effect immediately prior to Closing. For employees whose compensation is determined in whole or in part on the basis of commission income, “base pay” shall include base salary or total hourly wages paid plus commissions earned during the most recent twelve (12) months ended as of the date of termination of employment. Purchaser will offer IIBK employees whose jobs are eliminated as a result of the Merger priority in applying for open positions within Purchaser or Purchaser Bank. Any employee of IIBK who has or is a party to any employment agreement, severance agreement, change in control agreement or any other agreement or arrangement that provides for any payment that may be triggered by a termination, including a termination following the Merger, shall not receive the severance benefits as provided in this Section but will receive the payment specified in such agreement or arrangement.

(f) Purchaser shall honor and maintain all obligations under the employment agreements, the IIBK Second Amended and Restated Executive Non-Qualified Retirement Plan and associated Plan Agreements, IIBK Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Agreement with ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, IIBK Second Amended and Restated 2005 Deferred Compensation Agreement with ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Model Rabbi Trust Agreement, each as set forth in IIBK’s Disclosure Letter, except to the extent any such agreement is superseded, with the consent of the beneficiary, as of, or following, the Effective Time. Purchaser specifically agrees to assume the IIBK Second Amended and Restated Executive Non-Qualified Retirement Plan, IIBK Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Agreement with ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, IIBK Second Amended and Restated 2005 Deferred Compensation Agreement with ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Model Rabbi Trust Agreement (collectively, the “Non-Qualified Plans”) and the timing and amount of the benefits that accrue and the payments thereunder will continue to be made in accordance with the terms of the Non-Qualified Plans.

(g) Purchaser shall establish a retention bonus pool in the amount as provided in Purchaser Disclosure Letter for employees of IIBK and its Subsidiaries jointly designated in writing by Purchaser and IIBK (other than employees of IIBK who are subject to employment contracts or other contracts providing for severance) to help retain key employees; provided, that any retention bonus pool payment is not considered an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the IRC or results in any other adverse tax consequence to the Purchaser. The amount and payment date of the retention bonus for each such employee shall be jointly determined in writing by Purchaser and IIBK, but in the aggregate shall equal the amount provided in Purchaser Disclosure Letter assuming all such key employees remain with the Purchaser or an Affiliate to such date or are involuntarily terminated without cause prior to that date.

(h) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser, Purchaser Bank and IIBK shall enter into settlement agreements with ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to be effective as of the Effective Time, as provided in Purchaser Disclosure Letter.

(i) Purchaser shall provide all employees of IIBK and its Subsidiaries whose employment was terminated other than for cause, disability or retirement at or following the Effective Time, and who so desires, job counseling and outplacement assistance services, in which it shall assist such employees in locating new employment and shall notify all such employees who want to be so notified of opportunities for positions with Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries for which Purchaser reasonably believes such persons are qualified and shall consider any application for such positions submitted by such persons, provided, however, that any decision to offer employment to any such person shall be made in the sole discretion of Purchaser.

(j) IIBK shall take all such actions as Purchaser may reasonably request to fully and timely comply with any and all requirements of both federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 (“WARN Act”) and any state-specific WARN Act statutes, including providing notices to IIBK’s employees.

5.12 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the current or former directors, officers or employees of IIBK or any of its Subsidiaries (each, an “Indemnified Party”), and any person who becomes an Indemnified Party between the date hereof and the Effective Time, against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of IIBK, any of its Subsidiaries, or the IIBK Benefit Plans or any of their respective predecessors 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 corporation, partnership, trust, joint venture, employee benefit plan or other entity or (ii) any matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to the fullest extent such Person would have been indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses pursuant to IIBK’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws as in effect on the date of this Agreement and as permitted by applicable law, and Purchaser shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 5.12(a), upon learning of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation described above, shall promptly notify Purchaser thereof. Any failure to so notify shall not affect the obligations of Purchaser under Section 5.12(a) unless and to the extent that Purchaser is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(c) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, Purchaser shall maintain in effect IIBK’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering each Person currently covered by IIBK’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy with respect to claims against such Persons arising from facts or events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser be required to expend in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 5.12(c) more than 200% of the annual premium currently paid by IIBK for such insurance and, if Purchaser is unable to maintain such policy as a result of this proviso, Purchaser shall obtain as much comparable insurance as is available by payment of such time; provided further, that Purchaser may (i) request that IIBK obtain an extended reporting period endorsement under IIBK’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy or (ii) substitute therefor “tail” policies the material terms of which, including coverage and amount, are no less favorable in any material respect to such Person than IIBK’s existing insurance policies as of the date hereof.

(d) If Purchaser or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) liquidates, dissolves, transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person or entity, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that such successor and assign of Purchaser and its successors and assigns assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.12.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.12 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her representatives.

(f) Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Section 5.12 are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1828(k)) and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (12 C.F.R. Part 359).

5.13 Stockholder Litigation. IIBK shall give Purchaser and Purchaser Bank the opportunity to participate at Purchaser’s and Purchaser Bank’s own expense in the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against IIBK and/or its directors relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without Purchaser’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

5.14 Disclosure Supplements. From time to time prior to the Effective Time, IIBK, Purchaser and Purchaser Bank will promptly supplement or amend their respective Disclosure Letters delivered in connection herewith with respect to any matter hereafter arising that, if existing, occurring or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such Disclosure Letters or that is necessary to correct any information in such Disclosure Letters that has been rendered materially inaccurate thereby. No supplement or amendment to such Disclosure Letters shall have any effect for determining satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VI.

5.15 Advisory Board. Purchaser Bank shall establish an advisory board to advise Purchaser on its operations in the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho market and generating additional business contacts for Purchaser Bank in such area. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be invited to serve on the advisory board.

ARTICLE VII

TERMINATION

7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Merger abandoned, at any time prior to the Effective Time, by action taken or authorized by the Board of Directors of the terminating party, either before or after any requisite stockholder approval:

(a) by the mutual written consent of Purchaser and IIBK; or

(b) by either Purchaser or IIBK, in the event of the failure of IIBK’s stockholders to approve the Agreement at IIBK Stockholder Meeting; provided, however, that IIBK shall only be entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to this clause if it has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.8 (subject to Section 5.8(b));

(c) by either Purchaser or IIBK, if either (i) any approval, consent or waiver of a Governmental Entity required to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have been denied and such denial has become final and non-appealable or (ii) any court or other Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, unappealable order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(d) by either Purchaser or IIBK, if the Merger is not consummated by May 31, 2019, unless the failure to so consummate by such time is due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein;

(e) by either Purchaser or IIBK (provided that the party seeking termination is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), in the event of a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the other party set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the other party shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) and (b) or Sections 6.3(a) and (b), as the case may be, would not be satisfied and such breach or untrue representation or warranty has not been or cannot be cured within thirty (30) days following

written notice to the party committing such breach or making such untrue representation or warranty;

(f) by Purchaser, if (i) IIBK shall have breached its obligations under Section 5.1 or Section 5.8 in any material respect or (ii) if the Board of Directors of IIBK does not publicly recommend in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus that stockholders approve and adopt this Agreement or if, after recommending in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus that stockholders approve and adopt this Agreement, the Board of Directors effects a Change of Recommendation;

(g) by IIBK, at any time prior to the adoption and approval of this Agreement by IIBK’s stockholders, to enter into an agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal, but only if (i) IIBK’s Board of Directors has determined in good faith based on the advice of legal counsel that failure to take such action would cause the Board of Directors to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable law, and (ii) IIBK has not breached its obligations under Section 5.1.

(h) by IIBK, 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 (the “Purchaser Ratio”) shall be less than 0.80; and

(ii) the Purchaser Ratio shall be less than the number obtained by subtracting 0.20 from the Index Ratio (as defined below);

subject, however, to the following three sentences. If IIBK elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 7.1(h), it shall give written notice to Purchaser (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, Purchaser shall have the option to increase the consideration to be received by the holders of IIBK Common Stock and IIBK Stock Options hereunder, by adjusting the Exchange Ratio (calculated to the nearest ten-thousandth) to equal a quotient of (A) the product of the Starting Price, 0.80 and the Exchange Ratio, divided by (B) the Average Closing Price. If Purchaser so elects within such five-day period, it shall give prompt written notice to IIBK of such election and the revised Exchange Ratio, whereupon no termination shall have occurred pursuant to this Section 7.1(h) 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 7.1(h) the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

“Final Index Price” shall means the average closing price of the KBW Regional Banking index as reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (as reported at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending on and including the Determination Date.

“Index Price” shall mean $112.11, which is the closing price on the Starting Date for the KBW Regional Banking Index (as reported on ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇).

“Index Ratio” shall mean the Final Index Price divided by the Index Price.

“Starting Date” shall mean the third trading day prior to entry into this Agreement.

“Starting Price” shall mean $45.68, which is the closing price of a share of Purchaser Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (as reported on ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) on the Starting Date.

7.2 Termination Fee; Expenses.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by IIBK pursuant to Section 7.1(g), IIBK shall make payment to Purchaser of a termination fee of $6,834,075.

(b) In the event of termination of this Agreement by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.1(f), so long as at the time of such termination Purchaser is not in material breach of any representation, warranty or material covenant contained herein, IIBK shall make payment to Purchaser of a termination fee of $6,834,075.

(c) If (i) this Agreement is terminated (A) by either party pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or (B) by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.1(e) and the breach giving rise to such termination was knowing or intentional, and (ii) at the time of such termination Purchaser or Purchaser Bank is not in material breach of any representation, warranty or material covenant contained herein, and (iii) prior to the IIBK Stockholder Meeting (in the case of termination pursuant to Section 7.1(b)) or the date of termination (in the case of termination pursuant to Section 7.1(e)), an Acquisition Proposal has been publicly announced, disclosed or communicated and (iv) within twelve (12) months of such termination IIBK shall consummate or enter into any agreement with respect to the Acquisition Proposal set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 7.2(c), then IIBK shall make payment to Purchaser of a termination fee of $6,834,075.

(d) The fee payable pursuant to Section 7.2(a) or (b) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds at the time of termination. Any fee payable pursuant to Section 7.2(c) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after notice of demand for payment. IIBK, Purchaser Bank and Purchaser acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 7.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Purchaser and Purchaser Bank would not enter into this Agreement. The amount payable by IIBK pursuant to Sections 7.2(a), (b) or (c) constitutes liquidated damages and not a penalty and shall be the sole remedy of Purchaser and Purchaser Bank in the event of termination of this Agreement on the bases specified in such sections.

7.3 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Purchaser or IIBK as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and, subject to Section 7.2, have no effect, and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto or their respective officers and directors, except that (i) Sections 5.3(c), 7.2 and 8.6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its fraud or willful and material breach of any provision of this Agreement.

8.8 Entire Agreement; etc. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Disclosure Letters hereto, represents the entire understanding of the parties hereto with reference to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes any and all other oral or written agreements heretofore made, except for that certain non-disclosure agreement by and between IIBK and Purchaser, dated July 12, 2018 which shall remain in full effect pursuant to its terms. Except for Section 5.12, which confers rights on the parties described therein, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto in accordance herewith without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the Knowledge of any of the parties hereto. Consequently, Persons other than the parties may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties.

8.10 Severability. If any one or more provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement and the parties shall use their reasonable efforts to substitute a valid, legal and enforceable provision that, insofar as practical, implements the purposes and intents of this Agreement.

8.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the parties’ obligation to consummate the Merger), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further

waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

8.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW AT THE TIME OF INSTITUTION OF THE APPLICABLE LITIGATION, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation of a contract and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

This Voting Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 11, 2018, is entered into by and among First Interstate BancSystem, Inc., a Montana corporation (“Purchaser”), First Interstate Bank, a Montana-chartered bank (“Purchaser Bank”), and the undersigned (the “Shareholder”), a shareholder of Idaho Independent Bank, an Idaho-chartered bank (the “IIBK”).

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended, supplemented or modified, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among Purchaser, Purchaser Bank and IIBK, IIBK will be merged with and into Purchaser Bank, with Purchaser Bank as the surviving entity (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Shareholder owns beneficially or of record, and has the power to vote or direct the voting of, certain shares of common stock, $5.00 par value per share, of IIBK (“Common Stock”) (all such shares, the “Existing Shares”); and

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement for Purchaser and Purchaser Bank to enter into the Merger Agreement, Purchaser and Purchaser Bank have required that the Shareholder, in his or her capacity as a shareholder of IIBK, enter into this Agreement, and the Shareholder has agreed to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

b.	Beneficial Ownership. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “beneficial owner” and “beneficially own” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Effectiveness; Termination. This Agreement shall be effective upon signing. If the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason in accordance with its terms, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be null and void and of no effect as of the date of the termination of the Merger Agreement; provided that (i) this Section 2, Section 3 and Sections 9 through 14 hereof shall survive any such termination and (ii) such termination shall not relieve any party of any liability or damages resulting from any willful or material breach of any of his or her representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth herein.

Confidential Information. During the Term, the Shareholder shall not use or disclose any confidential information of Purchaser, Purchaser Bank or IIBK obtained by such person (including to the extent applicable), while serving as a director or officer of IIBK except to the extent such disclosure is required by a judicial or other governmental order. For purposes of this Agreement, “confidential information” means any information and material of or relating to Purchaser, Purchaser Bank or IIBK or any of their subsidiaries that is non-public or confidential, including proprietary information and trade secrets, and any and all information disclosed to or known by the Shareholder as a consequence of his or her employment or service as a director or officer with IIBK that is not generally known outside IIBK, but does not include (a) information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure; (b) information that was in the Shareholder’s possession prior to the date of this Agreement or information received by the Shareholder from another person without any limitations on disclosure, but only if the Shareholder had no reason to believe that the other person was prohibited from using or disclosing such information by a contractual or fiduciary obligation; or (c) information that was independently developed by the Shareholder without using or referencing any confidential information of Purchaser, Purchaser Bank or IIBK.

Voting Agreement. From the date hereof until the earlier of (a) the final adjournment of the IIBK Shareholder Meeting or (b) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Support Period”), the Shareholder irrevocably and unconditionally hereby agrees, that at any meeting (whether annual or special and each adjourned or postponed meeting) of IIBK’s shareholders, however called, or in connection with any written consent of IIBK’s shareholders, the Shareholder shall¹ (i) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause all of his or her Existing Shares and all other shares of Common Stock or voting securities of IIBK over which such Shareholder has acquired beneficial or record ownership after the date hereof and has the power to vote or direct the voting of (including any shares of Common Stock acquired by means of purchase, dividend or distribution, or issued upon the exercise of any stock options to acquire Common Stock or the conversion of any convertible securities, or pursuant to any other equity awards or derivative securities (including any IIBK Stock Options) or otherwise) (together with the Existing Shares, the “Shares”), which such Shareholder owns or controls as of the applicable record date, to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum, and (ii) vote or cause to be voted (including by proxy or written consent, if applicable) all such Shares (A) in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, (B) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of IIBK’s shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Merger Agreement, (C) against any action or proposal in favor of an Acquisition Proposal, without regard to the terms of such Acquisition Proposal, and (D) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be likely to (1) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of IIBK contained in the Merger Agreement, or of the Shareholder contained in this Agreement, or (2) prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or



¹ For Director ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ voting agreement only, the following language will be added: “(and Shareholder shall use his reasonable best efforts to cause any shares of Common Stock held by the Koontenai Tribe of Idaho to)

frustrate the purposes of or adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger; provided, that the foregoing applies solely to the Shareholder in his or her capacity as a shareholder and, Shareholder makes no agreement or understanding in this Agreement in Shareholder’s capacity as a director or officer of IIBK or any of its subsidiaries (if Shareholder holds such office), and nothing in this Agreement: (a) will limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by Shareholder in Shareholder’s capacity as such a director or officer, including in exercising rights under the Merger Agreement, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement; or (b) will be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict Shareholder from exercising Shareholder’s fiduciary duties as an officer or director to IIBK or its shareholders. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing commitments apply to any Shares held by any trust, limited partnership or other entity holding Shares for which the Shareholder serves in any partner, shareholder or trustee capacity. To the extent the Shareholder does not control, by himself or herself, the determinations of such shareholder entity, the Shareholder agrees to exercise all voting or other determination rights such Shareholder has in such shareholder entity to carry out the intent and purposes of his, her or its support and voting obligations in this paragraph and otherwise set forth in this Agreement. The Shareholder covenants and agrees that, except for this Agreement, such Shareholder (x) has not entered into, and shall not enter into during the Support Period, any voting agreement or voting trust with respect to the Shares and (y) has not granted, and shall not grant during the Support Period, a proxy, consent or power of attorney with respect to the Shares except any proxy to carry out the intent of this Agreement. The Shareholder agrees not to enter into any agreement or commitment with any person the effect of which would be inconsistent with or otherwise violate the provisions and agreements set forth herein.

Transfer Restrictions Prior to the Merger. The Shareholder hereby agrees that such Shareholder will not, during the Support Period, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, directly or indirectly, offer for sale, sell, transfer, assign, give, tender in any tender or exchange offer, pledge, encumber, hypothecate or similarly dispose of (by merger, by testamentary disposition, by operation of law or otherwise), either voluntarily or involuntarily, enter into any swap or other arrangements that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of, enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or other disposition of (by merger, by testamentary disposition, by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise convey or dispose of, any of the Shares, or any interest therein, including the right to vote any Shares, as applicable (a “Transfer”); provided, that the Shareholder may (i) Transfer Shares pursuant to any currently existing pledge agreement or for estate planning or philanthropic purposes so long as the transferee, prior to the date of Transfer, agrees in a signed writing to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Agreement and the Shareholder provides at least two (2) days’ prior written notice (which shall include the written consent of the transferee agreeing to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Agreement), in which case the Shareholder shall remain jointly and severally liable for any breach of this Agreement by such transferee, (ii) bequeath Shares by will or operation of law, in which case this Agreement shall bind the transferee, (iii) surrender Shares to IIBK in connection with the vesting, settlement or exercise of IIBK equity awards to satisfy any withholding for the

payment of taxes incurred in connection with such vesting, settlement or exercise, or, in respect of IIBK equity awards, the exercise price thereon, or (iv) Transfer Shares as is otherwise permitted by Purchaser in its sole discretion.

Representations of the Shareholder. The Shareholder represents and warrants to Purchaser and Purchaser Bank as follows: (a) the Shareholder has full legal right, capacity and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform the Shareholder’s obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Shareholder and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser and Purchaser Bank, constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms, and no other action is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder or the performance of his or her obligations hereunder; (c) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the compliance with the provisions hereof will not, conflict with or violate any law or result in any breach of or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on any of the Shares pursuant to, any agreement or other instrument or obligation binding upon the Shareholder or the Shares (including under the articles of incorporation and bylaws of IIBK), nor require any authorization, consent or approval of, or filing with, any Governmental Entity; (d) the Shareholder beneficially owns (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) and has the power to vote or direct the voting of the Shares, and the number of such Shares as of the date of this Agreement is identified on the signature page hereto; (e) the Shareholder beneficially owns the Shares free and clear of any proxy, voting restriction, adverse claim or other Lien (other than any restrictions created by this Agreement or under applicable federal or state securities laws); and (f) the Shareholder has read and is familiar with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The Shareholder agrees that the Shareholder shall not take any action that would make any representation or warranty of the Shareholder contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing, impairing, delaying or adversely affecting the performance by the Shareholder of his or her obligations under this Agreement. The Shareholder agrees, without further consideration, to execute and deliver such additional documents and to take such further actions as are necessary or reasonably requested by Purchaser or Purchaser Bank to confirm and assure the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement.

Publicity. The Shareholder hereby authorizes Purchaser, Purchaser Bank and IIBK to publish and disclose in any announcement or disclosure in connection with the Merger, including in the Registration Statement, the Proxy Statement-Prospectus or any other filing with any Governmental Entity made in connection with the Merger, the Shareholder’s identity and ownership of the Shares and the nature of the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement. The Shareholder agrees to notify Purchaser as promptly as practicable of any inaccuracies or omissions in any information relating to the Shareholder that is so published or disclosed.

Entire Agreement; Assignment. The recitals are incorporated as a part of this Agreement. This Agreement and the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than, if the Shareholder is a director or officer of IIBK, with respect to any employment, non-competition, non-solicit or consulting agreement between the Shareholder and either the Purchaser, Purchaser Bank or IIBK or its affiliates. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person not a party to this Agreement any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise and shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto; provided, however, that the rights under this Agreement are assignable by Purchaser and Purchaser Bank to a majority-owned affiliate or any successor-in-interest of Purchaser or Purchaser Bank, but no such assignment shall relieve Purchaser or Purchaser Bank of their obligations hereunder.

Remedies/Specific Enforcement. Each of the parties hereto agrees that this Agreement is intended to be legally binding and specifically enforceable pursuant to its terms and that Purchaser and Purchaser Bank would be irreparably harmed if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its specific terms and that monetary damages would not provide adequate remedy in such event. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Shareholder of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which Purchaser or Purchaser Bank may be entitled (including monetary damages), Purchaser and Purchaser Bank shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, and the Shareholder hereby waives any defense in any action for specific performance or an injunction or other equitable relief that a remedy at law would be adequate. The Shareholder further agrees that neither Purchaser, Purchaser Bank, nor any other person or entity shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this paragraph, and the Shareholder irrevocably waives any right he or she may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.


10.	Governing Law. This Agreement is governed by, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Montana, without regard to any applicable conflict of law principles.

11.

Notice. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, telecopied (with confirmation), mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or delivered by an express courier (with confirmation) if to the Shareholder, to the address or e-mail address, as applicable, set forth in Schedule A hereto, and if to Purchaser or Purchaser Bank, in accordance with Section 8.7 of the Merger Agreement.


12.	Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable

law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction such that the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

13.

Amendments; Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed (a) in the case of an amendment, by Purchaser, Purchaser Bank, and the Shareholder, and (b) in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

14.

Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AT THE TIME OF INSTITUTION OF THE APPLICABLE LITIGATION, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) THE PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (III) THE PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (IV) THE PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14.
