In reviewing Seller’s loans for the purpose of identifying Additional Accepted Loans Buyer may, in its sole discretion, accept any pool or pools of loans assembled by Seller (which may or may not be serviced by Seller as the parties may agree) and/or any participated loans or interest in participated loans, and may exclude: (i) Loans Seller agrees to retain, if any, (ii) Loans for which the loan file fails to include any material documentation, (iii) Loans shown on Seller’s books and records as being attributable to the Branches and which have any required payment of principal or interest thirty (30) or more days overdue, (iv) Loans that are any second mortgages that together with the first mortgage bring the loan amount to greater than one hundred percent (100%) loan to value ratio if the loan is located in Wisconsin or ninety percent (90%) if located in the Minneapolis/St. ▇▇▇▇ metropolitan area, (v) Loans that are not located within the service area of the Buyer inclusive of the Branch locations being acquired, (v) Loans that the borrower is not within the field of membership of the Buyer, as described on Exhibit E, (vi) any syndicated or participated Loans, other than Loans in which Buyer is already a participant, (vii) any Loans originated in connection with farming, land development, beauticians, loggers and over-the-road truckers, and (viii) any Loans originated in connection with taverns/bars and restaurants, on a case by case basis (all such Loans on any given date, collectively, the “Excluded Loans”).

The Closing will take place as soon as practicable after the conditions regarding regulatory approvals have been satisfied and the Buyer is prepared to convert the Accepted Loans, Additional Accepted Loans, and Deposits to its proprietary computer systems, but in no event later than March 31, 2010; provided, however, that if the sole event preventing

Closing on such date is the absence of regulatory approval and there has been no indication such approval will be denied, the closing date shall be postponed for an additional forty-five (45) days.

     3. Payment. The purchase price for the Sale will be payable in an initial and final payment pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively.

          (a) Initial Payment. As soon as practicable following the first opening of business after the Effective Time, Seller will transfer to Buyer or Buyer will transfer to Seller, as the case may be, an amount which constitutes an estimate of the purchase price for the Sale, calculated by using information available to the parties as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Effective Time. Seller will deliver to Buyer on or before the Closing Date updated supporting information regarding the items used to calculate the initial payment which describes these items as of the date the initial payment is calculated, including updated Exhibits. The initial payment will be in cash or other immediately available funds and will be in an amount equal to (as calculated, the “Initial Payment”):

               (1) the aggregate book value of the Deposits, as shown on Seller’s books and records as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Effective Time; less

               (2) the depreciated book value, as of the Effective Time, of the Owned Real Estate and Fixtures and Equipment, as reflected on Seller’s books and records as of the last day of the month prior to the month in which the Effective Time falls; less

               (3) an amount equal to the principal of and interest accrued and unpaid on the Accepted Loans and Additional Accepted Loans, as shown on Seller’s books and records as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Effective Time (no reserves or unamortized fees will be applied against the aggregate book value of the Loans) (which calculations shall not include the Excluded Loans), as reflected on an updated Exhibit C and D delivered by Seller; less

               (4) the price agreed upon between Buyer and Seller for the Excluded Loans that are included as Additional Accepted Loans, as shown on Seller’s books and records as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Effective Time, as reflected on updated Exhibit D delivered by Seller; less

               (5) an amount equal to (i) 4.5% of the Deposits including (A) personal and business Demand Deposit Accounts (“DDAs”), (B) Market Yield Accounts, (C) Market Rate Investment Accounts, (D) Savings Accounts, (E) Certificates of Deposit (“CDs”), and (E) individual retirement accounts and other Retirement Plans, as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) 0.0% of all public funds, brokered deposits, or other out of market CDs (collectively, the “Deposit Premium”); less

               (6) the cash on hand at the Branches as of the close of business no more than four (4) business days prior to the Effective Time.

If the amount calculated above results in a number which is greater than zero (i.e., deposits exceed the components of the purchase price), then Seller will transfer the resulting amount to Buyer. However, if the amount calculated above results in a number which is less than zero (i.e., the components of the purchase price exceed deposits), then Buyer will transfer the resulting amount to Seller. The amounts under Subsection (5) of this Section 3(a) shall be calculated by taking the average daily collected balances of the aforementioned account liabilities at the close of each business day for each of the thirty (30) business days immediately preceding the date used for calculation of the initial payment, which date shall not be more than three (3) business days prior to the Effective Time.

          (b) Final Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Time on a date to be mutually agreed upon by the Buyer and Seller (“Settlement Date”), Seller will transfer to Buyer or Buyer will transfer to Seller, as the case may be, an amount which constitutes the difference between the actual purchase price for the Sale calculated by using information as of the Effective Time, and the Initial Payment (as calculated below, the “Final Payment”). Seller will deliver to Buyer on or before the Settlement Date updated supporting information regarding the items used to calculate the Final Payment which describes these items as of the Effective Time, including final Exhibits C, D, F and G, which shall be updated as of the Effective Time and be delivered no later than four (4) business days prior to the Settlement Date. The Final Payment will be in cash or other immediately available funds and will be in an amount equal to:

               (1) the aggregate book value of the Deposits, as shown on Seller’s books and records as of the Effective Time; less

               (2) the depreciated book value, as of the Effective Time, of the Owned Real Estate and Fixtures and Equipment; less

               (3) the aggregate book value of the Loans, as shown on Seller’s books and records as of the Effective Time, provided that no reserves will be applied against the aggregate book value of the Loans (Excluded Loans shall not be included in this calculation); less

               (4) the price agreed upon between Buyer and Seller for the Additional Accepted Loans, provided that in the event Seller and Buyer are unable to agree upon the terms of transfer for one or more Additional Accepted Loans, those loans will be retained by Seller along with any Deposits securing the Loans and all Deposits of any customer whose Additional Accepted Loan is not transferred to Buyer; less

               (5) the Deposit Premium; less

               (6) the cash on hand at the Branches as of the Effective Time; less

               (7) amounts for the items listed in subsection (c) below, prorated as of the Effective Time; less (or plus in the event Buyer made the initial payment to Seller)

               (8) the amount of the Initial Payment.

If the amount calculated above results in a number which is greater than zero (i.e., deposits exceed the components of the purchase price), then Seller will transfer the resulting amount to Buyer. However, if the amount calculated above results in a number which is less than zero (i.e., the components of the purchase price exceed deposits), then Buyer will transfer the resulting amount to Seller. The amount constituting the difference between the Initial Payment and the Final Payment will bear interest from the date of the Initial Payment to the date of the Final Payment at a rate equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. This interest will be paid along with the final payment on the Settlement Date. The amounts under Subsection (5) of this Section 3(b) shall be calculated by taking the average daily collected balances of the aforementioned account liabilities at the close of each business day for each of the thirty (30) business days immediately preceding the Effective Time.

          (c) Prorated Items. As appropriate, special assessments on the Real Estate, safe deposit box rentals, wages, rents, real and personal property taxes (based on the actual amount due for the current year if known, otherwise for the prior year), Service Contract payments, additional rents, CAM charges and estimates, any other payments due or paid under the Leases, utility payments, insurance premiums and similar expenses relating to the physical plant of the Branches, employment taxes relating to the Transferring Employees, state or federal taxes collected but not remitted, workers compensation payments for Transferring Employees, FDIC premiums relating to the Deposits and any other expenses, accruals and payments relating to the Assets or the Deposits will be prorated as of the Effective Time. Seller will receive a proportionate monetary adjustment to the extent an item has been prepaid by Seller for a period extending beyond the Effective Time, and Buyer will receive a proportionate monetary adjustment to the extent that an item has been deferred by Seller to a time extending beyond the Effective Time Buyer has paid the item. Any items which would appropriately be subject to proration but which cannot be prorated by the Settlement Date will be prorated as soon as the requisite information is available and will be paid promptly by the appropriate party after this time. At Buyer’s request, Seller will deliver to Buyer on or before the Settlement Date updated supporting information regarding the items which will be prorated as of the Effective Time. Seller shall also be credited with any security or other deposit paid under any of the Leases.

     4. Access and Investigation. Commencing on the date this Agreement is executed by all parties, and continuing for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter, (the “Due Diligence Period”), Seller shall permit Buyer reasonable access to the books and records of the Branches to conduct a review of the Branches and to evaluate the feasibility of the transactions contemplated herein (“Due Diligence”). Not later than three (3) business days following the

end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall notify Seller that Buyer wishes to terminate this Agreement (in which case this Agreement shall be deemed terminated without premium or penalty) or proceed to close the Sale (in which case the parties shall proceed to close the Sale). Failure to give notice within the time provided for herein shall be deemed a notice to proceed to close the Sale.

          (b) Inspection. Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Assets hereunder shall be contingent on Buyer’s or its agents’ satisfactory review of the Real Estate Documents, the Real Estate, and any new or updated surveys ordered by the Buyer as provided in this Section 5.

In the event Buyer conducts a Phase II Survey and thereafter elects to not purchase the Real Estate subject to such Phase II Survey, Buyer will provide to Seller evidence that such Phase II Survey has been paid for and that any lien rights have been waived.

          (d) Title.

               (1) Preliminary Title Commitment and Permitted Encumbrances. Buyer shall review the Preliminary Title Commitment and notify Seller in writing, within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement or receipt of the Preliminary Title Commitment, whichever is first, of those exceptions to title approved by Buyer, which shall include municipal and zoning ordinances and agreements arising out of them, general taxes levied in the year in which the Effective Time falls, special assessments, special use charges, BID assessments and other municipal charges levied with the taxes, which shall be prorated at Closing, the Leases, recorded easements restrictions building and use agreements and all matters of survey which do not have a material impact on Buyer’s ability to operate its business on the Real Estate, and liens which will be paid out of the proceeds of the Closing (the “Permitted Exceptions”). Seller will then have until ten days before the end of the Real Estate Inspection Period to cure or elect to cure at Closing, any defects not listed among Permitted Exceptions. If Seller elects not to cure such defects and objections, Buyer will have the sole option, which must be exercised prior to the end of the Real Estate Inspection Period, to either: (i) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to Seller; or (ii) accept title to the Real Estate subject to the uncured defects and objections, with no reduction in the price allocated to the Real Estate, in which case the defects and objections will also be deemed “Permitted Exceptions.” If Buyer does not make any election, Buyer will be deemed to have elected option (ii) above. If Seller agrees to cure a defect or objection, and fails to do so prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to extend the Closing Date until such defect is cured or the parties come to another agreement.

               (2) Updated Title Commitment. Seller will, within ten (10) business days prior to Closing, provide Buyer with an updated form of Title Commitment (the “Title Commitment”) on a then current ALTA form, naming Buyer as the insured, showing title to the

Owned Real Estate vested in Seller as of a date no more than fifteen (15) days before the Closing, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Owned Real Estate as shown on the most recent tax ▇▇▇▇, and showing title to the Owned Real Estate to be merchantable subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, and subject to any other exceptions which Seller has agreed to remove at Closing.

               (3) Title Costs. Seller will pay the cost of the Title Commitment and title insurance evidenced thereby and the cost of any transfer tax imposed by the State of Wisconsin on the conveyance of the Real Estate. Buyer will pay the cost of any additional title coverage or special endorsements.

          (e) Buyer’s Inspection Rights. If Buyer determines in its sole discretion that the Real Estate or any portion thereof is unsatisfactory to Buyer, then Buyer shall have the right to elect one of the following: (i) terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice of termination to Seller prior to the expiration of the Real Estate Inspection Period (or any applicable extension period as provided in this Agreement, but only as to the Branches for which such extension applies); (ii) waive in writing Buyer’s contingency in this Section 5 and accept of the Real Estate in its condition at the time with no reduction in the price allocated to the Real Estate; (iii) provide no notice of any kind to Seller prior to the expiration of the Real Estate Inspection Period (or any applicable extension period as provided in this Agreement), in which case Buyer will be deemed to have waived its contingency contained in this Section 5. If Buyer has elected to extend the Real Estate Inspection Period for any Branches, under the provision of Paragraph 5(c)(2) above, then Buyer may, before the end of the Real Estate Inspection Period, elect to terminate the entire Agreement, in which case all further rights of access to the Real Estate shall terminate, or may elect to waive in writing Buyer’s contingency in this Section 5 as to all Real Estate except the Branch for which the extension was elected, in which case the Buyer reserves the right to again terminate this entire Agreement before the end of such extension, if Buyer is not satisfied with the result of the Phase II Survey for the Branch for which the Real Estate Inspection Period was extended. Failure of Buyer to terminate this Agreement under the provision above, and completion of the Closing shall constitute conclusive evidence that Buyer has determined to accept the condition of the Real Estate. In closing this transaction and completing its due diligence, Buyer will be relying exclusively on its own inspections and reviews and not upon any express or implied representations or warranties of Seller unless contained in this Agreement or as agreed to in a written amendment to this Agreement, signed by the Seller and the Buyer. Seller has made no express or implied representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Real Estate (whether environmental or otherwise) and Buyer shall at Closing accept the Real Estate in its “as is/where is” condition.

          (f) Conveyance of Owned Real Estate. At the Effective Time, Seller will convey the Owned Real Estate by Warranty Deed (the “Warranty Deed”), free and clear of all title defects, liens and encumbrances except the Permitted Exceptions.

Seller will cooperate with Buyer and take reasonable steps requested by Buyer to ensure that, for the period of time after the Effective Time as the parties may agree, each check, draft or withdrawal order drawn against Deposits encoded for presentment to Seller or to any bank for the account of Seller is delivered to Buyer in a timely manner and in accordance with applicable law and clearinghouse rule or agreement.

          (e) Stop Payment Items. Buyer will honor stop payment orders initiated prior to the Effective Time and reflected in stop payment documents delivered to Buyer.

     10. Employees of the Branches. The parties shall follow the following procedure in dealing with employees of Seller who are employed in the Branches (the “Employees”) regarding employment after the Closing Date:

          (a) Within thirty (30) days after the date hereof, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a true and complete list of all Employees by name, date of hire, position in the Branches, base salary and other compensation (including incentives, bonuses, commissions, stock based awards, perquisites, etc.) during the preceding twelve (12) month period and increases in base salary during the preceding 12 month period, any employment or non-compete agreement and terms of such non-compete, entered into with an Employee and the normal work schedule for each Employee (such list, the “Employee Disclosure Schedule”). Upon reasonable notice from Buyer, Seller shall allow Buyer to interview any and all Employees for the purposes set forth in this Section 10.

          (b) Buyer may interview all Employees who are interested in seeking employment with Buyer and whom Buyer has an interest in employing and, within ninety (90) days after the Employee Disclosure Schedule is delivered in accordance with clause (a) above, shall deliver to Seller a confidential list setting forth those Employees to whom Buyer intends to offer employment on the Closing Date (“Designated Employees”) and the position to be offered to each Designated Employee. Within fourteen (14) days after delivery of the list of Designated Employees to Seller, Buyer shall provide Designated Employees with an application for employment with Buyer as provided by Buyer (or such other method as Buyer utilizes in the ordinary course of business), and Seller shall encourage Designated Employees to complete an application and submit it to the Buyer. Within thirty (30) days after Seller’s delivery of an application of employment to such Designated Employees, Buyer shall notify Seller of such Designated Employees who have accepted a position of employment with Buyer (such employees, “Transferring Employees”). After Buyer provides to Seller the list of Designated Employees, Seller may at its option approach any Employee, other than a Designated Employee, to discuss opportunities for such Employee to transfer to other positions with Seller after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall have no obligation to offer employment to any of Seller’s employees. However, in the event Buyer does not provide written notice to Seller of the names of the Transferring Employees, Seller shall also have the opportunity to offer other positions to any employees who Buyer has not confirmed in such notice as having received and accepted an offer of employment from Buyer.

          (c) Seller and Buyer shall cooperate in order to permit Buyer to train the Transferring Employees and certain of Buyer’s employees shall be trained on Seller’s systems in order to permit an orderly transfer, and Seller shall, as scheduled by Buyer for reasonable times and subject to Seller’s reasonable approval (such that Seller’s ongoing operations at the Branches shall not be materially disrupted) excuse such employees from their duties at the Branches for the purpose of training and orientation by Buyer during the five (5) week period prior to the Closing Date for a maximum of twenty-four (24) hours per Employee, or such additional time as consented to by Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

          (d) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Seller shall terminate the employment of all of the employees at each of the Branches and satisfy all of its obligations to such employees. Buyer shall not be obligated to Seller or any other party for any compensation or labor-related obligations or liabilities arising out of any person’s employment with the Seller.

          (e) As of the Effective Time, the employment by Buyer of the Transferring Employees shall commence. Employees hired by Buyer will be, to the extent permitted by applicable law and the rules and regulations established pursuant to the respective plan, immediately eligible to participate in all employee welfare benefit plans and other fringe benefits and perquisites extended to employees holding comparable positions with Buyer, and will be given immediate credit under all employee benefit plans covering employees of Buyer in existence at the Effective Time for length of service with Seller. Buyer will admit participating Transferring Employees to its retirement plan on the first entry date following the Effective Time and will permit them to roll any payments from the retirement plan of Seller or Seller’s affiliates, as permitted by IRS regulations.

          (f) Employee Information and COBRA Obligations. In addition to the other information specifically provided for herein, Seller shall furnish such employee information on the Employee Disclosure Schedule relating to a Transferred Employee as it has available and as Buyer may reasonably request, both prior to and after the Closing Date, including (without limitation) years of service to be counted for eligibility and vesting purposes under any employee benefit plans and information pertinent to determinations concerning COBRA coverage. “COBRA Coverage” means any and all health continuation obligations under ERISA Section 601, Code Section 4980B and/or applicable state law arising from an individual’s loss of coverage under Seller’s health plan whether before or after the Closing Date. Seller agrees it will comply with all requirements of COBRA applicable to it.

Upon not less than three business days’ prior notice, Buyer will permit Seller, at its expense, to inspect, make extracts from or copies of the records as Seller requests, provided that Seller’s activities will not unreasonably interfere with Buyer’s business operations and Seller’s inspection and/or extraction will not require Buyer to breach any obligation of confidentiality, violate any law, regulation or order regarding disclosure of information or reveal any proprietary information, trade secrets or marketing or strategic plans. Seller will treat this information as confidential.

     12. Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all sales taxes, transfer taxes, ad valorem taxes and recordation fees or similar taxes or fees which are payable or arise as a result of this Agreement or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will be paid by the party upon whom such taxes are imposed.

On and after the Closing Date, each party will promptly deliver to the other all mail and other communications that are properly addressable or deliverable to the other as a consequence of the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and, without limitation of the foregoing, on and after the Closing Date, Seller shall promptly forward any mail, communications or other material relating to the Deposits or the Assets transferred on the Closing Date to such employees of Buyer at such addresses as may from time to time be specified by Buyer in writing.

     19. Confidentiality. Neither Buyer nor Seller will use any information obtained pursuant to this Agreement for any purpose unrelated to this Agreement. Both parties will hold in confidence all information and documents obtained pursuant to this Agreement, and will request confidential treatment before any information or documents are submitted in connection with any application for regulatory approval, unless the information otherwise becomes publicly available other than through the actions of the other party or if a party determines that the information or document is required by law to be disclosed, in which case that party will notify the other of the impending disclosure. In the event the Sale is for any reason not consummated, all confidential information received by Buyer or Seller promptly will be returned to the other party without retaining any copies.

          (d) Certified Resolutions. Seller has furnished Buyer will a certified copy of the resolutions adopted by its Board of Directors authorizing the Sale.

          (e) Regulatory Approvals and Other Consents. Buyer and Seller have received all necessary federal and state regulatory approvals for the Sale, and any applicable waiting periods in the approvals have elapsed without challenge.

     22. Termination by the Parties.

Insurance Fund) has denied any application of Seller or Buyer for approval of the Sale and any appeals have been exhausted; or (e) by Seller or Buyer in writing if the Sale has not been consummated at least six (6) months from the date of this Agreement.

     23. Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated, it will become void and neither party will have any further liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or except and to the extent termination results from the breach by a party of any of its representations, warranties or covenants and except that neither party will be relieved of its obligations under Sections 19, 23, 24 and 25.

     24. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties in this Agreement will survive the Closing Date as follows: (a) in the case of a fraudulent or intentional breach of a representation or warranty, indefinitely; (b) in the case of a claim based upon a breach of a representation or warranty pertaining to taxes, for a period equal to the applicable statute of limitations; and (c) in the case of all other claims, including those based upon the inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty as they relate to the Assets and the Deposits, for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section limits the right of either Buyer or Seller to assert a claim for contribution or indemnification against the other party as a result of a claim brought by a third party against Buyer or Seller, provided that any claim for contribution or indemnification pursuant to Sections 25 and 26, will be brought within one (1) year from the date the third party’s action is commenced.

     25. Indemnification.

          (a) Seller. Seller will indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from and against any loss, cost, expense or other damage (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to: (1) the breach of a representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (2) the breach of a covenant made by Seller in this Agreement; (3) any debts, obligations, contracts and liabilities of Seller not assumed by Buyer; or (4) claims asserted against Buyer by a third party as a result of any acts or omissions of Seller prior to the Effective Time.

          (b) Buyer. Buyer will indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any loss, cost, expense or other damage (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to: (1) the breach of a representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (2) the breach of a covenant made by Buyer in this Agreement; or (3) any debts, obligations, contracts or liabilities of Seller assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, unless the loss, cost, expense or other damage occurred as a result of an act or omission which occurred prior to the Effective Time.

          (c) Claims. Any claim for indemnification under this Section must be asserted within the applicable survival period, and if not asserted within that period the right to assert the claim will lapse. Except for claims asserted by a third party, the indemnifying party will not have any liability for a claim until the aggregate amount of the liability for the claim exceeds $25,000, at which time that party will have liability for the full amount of the claim.

In no event will Seller’s liability for indemnification exceed the sum of the amounts listed in Sections 3(b)(2) through (6) (which items are considered the “purchase price” for the Branches).

          (d) Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provided by this Section is the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any claim of any party to this Agreement against any other party to this Agreement in connection with the Sale, and the remedy provided in this Section will be in lieu of any other claims or actions that might otherwise have been available at law or in equity.

     26. Defense of Claims. If any third party asserts a claim against Buyer which, if successful, would entitle Buyer to indemnification under this Agreement, Buyer will give notice of the claim to Seller and Seller will have the right to assume the defense of the claim at its expense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, provided Seller diligently pursues the defense of the claim. If Seller does assume the defense, it will indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all losses, damages and liabilities caused by or arising out of any settlement or judgment of such claim. In addition, Buyer will have the right to participate in the defense of the claim at its expense, in which case Seller will cooperate in providing information to and consulting with Buyer about the claim and Seller will not consent to the entry of judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of Buyer. If Seller does not assume the defense of the claim, Buyer may defend against and/or settle the claim in the manner and on the terms as it in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ appropriate and will be indemnified for the amount of any judgment or settlement and for all losses or expenses, legal or otherwise, incurred in connection with the defense and/or settlement of the claim. Failure by Seller to give written notice to Buyer of its election to defend the claim within thirty (30) days after written notice of the claim is given to Seller by Buyer will be deemed a waiver of Seller’s right to defend the claim.

     27. Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that provisions contained in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the parties are entitled under Section 28 of this Agreement.

     28. Resolution of Disputes; Binding Arbitration. Any and all claims and disputes of any kind or nature between the parties arising under or relating to this Agreement or the breach or enforcement thereof shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in Madison, Wisconsin, by three (3) neutral arbitrators (who are active members of the legal profession with experience in contracts) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon such award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. Any party may at any time initiate an arbitration under this Agreement by giving notice of arbitration to the other party. Each party shall appoint an arbitrator, obtain its appointee’s acceptance of such appointment, and deliver written notification of such appointment and acceptance to the other party within thirty (30) days after

delivery of the notice of arbitration. The two (2) party appointed arbitrators shall jointly appoint the third arbitrator, obtaining the appointee’s acceptance of such appointment and notify the parties in writing of such appointment and acceptance within thirty (30) days following their appointment and acceptance. If the appointment and acceptance of the third arbitrator are not effective within the thirty (30) day period, then, the American Arbitration Association shall appoint the third arbitrator, obtain the acceptance of such appointment and notify the parties and both arbitrators in writing of such appointment and acceptance. The third arbitrator shall serve as chairperson of the tribunal. All decisions and rulings of the tribunal, as well as any interim or final award, shall be pursuant to majority vote of the three (3) arbitrators comprising the tribunal. Any party may at any time initiate an arbitration under this Agreement by giving notice of arbitration to the other party. The parties agree that, with respect to any dispute, claim or controversy that is to be arbitrated, discovery and the nature of that allowed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will be afforded to each party and any dispute with respect to such discovery shall also be settled by the arbitrators. The arbitrators shall award costs of the arbitration proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in favor of the prevailing party provided that, if both parties prevail on different claims, the costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses shall be allocated according to the monetary value of the claims decided against a party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party to this Agreement shall be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive or other appropriate equitable relief in a court to the extent necessary to preserve its rights prior to a resolution of arbitration proceedings or to obtain equitable relief to the extent necessary to prevent irreparable harm.

     29. Public Announcements. Seller and Buyer will agree as to the timing, form and substance of any press release relating to the Sale, provided that nothing will prohibit either party from making any disclosure which it deems necessary to comply with applicable law.

     30. Exhibits. On or before the date of this Agreement, Seller will provide Buyer with certain information related to the business of the Branches, attached to this Agreement as exhibits and incorporated in this Agreement by reference.

     31. Brokers. Buyer and Seller each represent and warrant that all negotiations relative to the Sale have been carried on without the intervention of any third parties.

     32. Payment of Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party will bear and pay all costs and expenses incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the Sale, including expenses incurred in connection with regulatory approvals or for any notices to the Branches’ customers.

     33. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter of the Sale and supersedes all negotiations, preliminary agreements and all prior or contemporaneous discussions and understandings of the parties.

     34. Amendments. No amendment, change, modification or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement are effective unless made in writing and executed by both parties.

     35. Assignment. This Agreement is binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other.

     36. Addresses for Notice.
