     1.3. Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. All exhibits and schedules
attached hereto or referenced herein, are hereby incorporated into this
Agreement.
2. CREDIT FACILITIES.
     2.1. The Loans. Lender agrees to extend to Borrower a Term Loan in the
aggregate principal amount of $110 million in accordance with the terms of, and
subject to the conditions set forth in, this Agreement, the Note and the other
Loan Documents. The entire principal amount of Term Loan shall be borrowed on
the Borrowing Date. The principal amount of the Term Loan shall bear interest
per annum at a rate equal to the greater of: (i) 6.50%; and (ii) LIBOR plus 500
basis points. The unpaid principal balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest
on Term Loan shall be due and payable on (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) such
earlier date on which such amount shall become due and payable on account of
acceleration by Lender in accordance with the terms of Note and this Agreement
or (iii) the date on which Lender converts Note into shares of Common Stock, as
set forth in Section 2.8.1.
     2.2. The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by Note.
     2.3. Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, all sums due and owing under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Loan shall be repaid
in full, provided, however, that Lender may elect to convert the outstanding
principal and interest owed under the Note into shares of Common Stock as set
forth in Section 2.8. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender has not made
any commitments, either express or implied, to extend the terms of the Loan past
its Maturity Date, unless Borrower and Lender hereafter specifically otherwise
agree in writing.
     2.4. Collateral. Borrower’s Liabilities shall be secured by the collateral
pledged pursuant to the Pledge Agreement.
     2.5. The Closing. The funding of the Loan (the “Closing”) will occur at the
offices of Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP, counsel to Lender, at
200 West Madison Street, Suite 3900, Chicago, Illinois at 9:30 a.m. on the date
of Closing, or at such other place or time or on such other date as the parties
hereto may agree, by disbursing the proceeds of the Loan in accordance with any
Instructions received at least one Business Day prior to Closing.
     2.6. Interest Rates.
          2.6.1. Interest Rates. The amounts borrowed under the Note shall bear
interest per annum as set forth in Section 2.1. For purposes of determining the
interest rate on the Note, LIBOR shall be determined as of the first Business
Day following an interest payment date and shall continue until the next
interest payment date; provided, however, that for the period between the date
on which the Disbursement is made and the first interest payment date, LIBOR
shall be determined as of the date on which the Disbursement is made.
          2.6.2. Interest Payments. Subject to Section 2.6.3 hereof, interest
accrued on the outstanding amount of each Loan shall be payable by Borrower in
arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December (each, an
“Interest Payment Date”), commencing on the first such Interest Payment Date
following the Closing and ended on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower may, at its option, pay a portion of the interest payable on
an Interest Payment Date by issuing to Lender shares of Common Stock in lieu of
cash, provided, however, that at each Interest Payment Date Borrower shall pay
an amount of interest payable in cash equal to or greater than (i) the
outstanding principal amount of the Loan multiplied by (ii) 5.00% (the “Cash
Interest Amount”). The amount of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date
that may be paid in shares of Common Stock in

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

lieu of cash shall equal (i) the total interest payment due and payable minus
(ii) the Cash Interest Amount (the “PIK Interest Amount”). If Borrower elects to
pay a portion of the interest payable on an Interest Payment Date through the
issuance to Lender of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common
Stock to be issued shall equal (i) the PIK Interest Amount, divided by (ii) the
lowest of (A) $0.60 per share, (B) the per share tangible book value of
Borrower, determined in accordance with GAAP, as of the last day of the quarter
ending on the relevant Interest Payment Date and (C) the Market Price of Common
Stock.
          2.6.3. Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest and the
payment dates specified in this Section 2.6, effective immediately upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the principal
balance of the Loan then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, any interest payments not paid within 10 days after the same becomes due
shall bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 300 basis points per
annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable pursuant to this
Section 2.6 (the “Default Rate”). In addition, all other amounts due Lender
(whether directly or for reimbursement) under this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, if not paid within five Business Days after becoming due or, in
the event no time period is expressed, if not paid within five Business Days
after written notice from Lender that the same has become due, shall thereafter
bear interest at the foregoing Default Rate. Finally, any amount due on a
Maturity Date which is not then paid shall also bear interest thereafter at the
Default Rate.
          2.6.4. Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest
accrues and a year of 360 days. In computing interest, the date of funding shall
be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that
if any funding is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest
shall be paid thereon. The parties hereto intend to conform strictly to
applicable usury laws as in effect from time to time during the terms of the
Loan. Accordingly, if the transaction contemplated hereby would be usurious
under applicable law (including the laws of the United States of America, or of
any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable), then, in that
event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Note,
Borrower and Lender agree that the aggregate of all consideration that
constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, charged or
received under or in connection with this Agreement shall under no circumstances
exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess
shall be credited to Borrower by Lender (or if such consideration shall have
been paid in full, such excess refunded to Borrower by Lender).
     2.7. Payments.
          2.7.1. Prepayment. Prior to January 1, 2013, Borrower may not prepay
any principal amount outstanding under the Note. On or after January 1, 2013,
Borrower may, upon at least ten Business Day’s notice to Lender, prepay, without
penalty, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Note, by paying
the principal amount to be prepaid, together with unpaid accrued interest
thereon to but excluding the date of prepayment. This right to prepayment is
subject to Lender’s right to convert the principal amount outstanding under the
Note into shares of Common Stock as described in Section 2.8 hereof.
          2.7.2. Manner and Time of Payment. Except as set forth in
Section 2.6.2, all payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder payable to
Lender shall be made, without condition or reservation of right and free of
set-off or counterclaim, in U.S. dollars and by wire transfer (pursuant to
Lender’s written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds
delivered to Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date due.
Funds received by Lender after that time and date shall be deemed to have been
paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          2.7.3. Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made
by Borrower hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business
Day, payments shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such
extension of time (but not such next succeeding Business Day) shall be included
in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.
          2.7.4. Application of Payments. All payments received by Lender from
or on behalf of Borrower shall first be applied to amounts due to Lender to pay
Lender’s fees and reimburse Lender’s costs and expenses, including those
pursuant to Section 6.3 or 8.5 of this Agreement, second to accrued interest
under the Note, provided, however, that after the date on which the final
payment of principal with respect to the Loan is due or following and during any
Event of Default, all payments received on account of Borrower’s Liabilities
shall be applied, in whatever order, combination and amounts as Lender, in its
sole and absolute discretion, decides, to all costs, expenses and other
indebtedness owing to Lender. No amount paid on any of the Note may be
reborrowed.
     2.8. Conversion. At the sole election of Lender, Lender may at any time
convert the outstanding principal of the Note, together with any accrued but
unpaid interest thereon, into shares of Common Stock (“Term Loan Converted
Shares”). The number of Term Loan Converted Shares shall equal the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) the outstanding principal of Term Loan, together with
any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price. For each
fractional share, cash will be paid in an amount equal to the product obtained
by multiplying (A) the fractional share by (B) the Conversion Price.
          2.8.1. Notice of Conversion. Lender shall provide Borrower written
notice of its election to convert a Note at least three (3) Business Days prior
to the date of conversion.
          2.8.2. Treatment of Interest. At the time of any conversion, all
interest accrued but unpaid to Lender through the date of conversion shall be
due and payable to Lender on the date of conversion.
     2.9. Loan Origination Fee. At the Closing, Borrower shall pay to Lender a
one-time fee equal to one-half percent (0.5%) of the aggregate principal amount
of the Loans.
3. DISBURSEMENT.
     3.1. Disbursement. At such time as all of the terms and conditions set
forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied by Borrower and Borrower has executed
and delivered to Lender each of the Loan Documents and any other related
documents in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, in its sole and absolute
discretion, Lender shall disburse to Borrower an amount equal to $110 million
(the “Disbursement”).
          3.1.1. Borrower Termination Right. Prior to any Disbursement of funds
by Lender to Borrower pursuant to Section 3.1, Borrower may terminate this
Agreement by delivering to Lender (a) a written notice of such termination and
(b) a termination fee of $7.5 million.
          3.1.2. Certain Costs and Expenses. In the event Borrower fails to
satisfy the disbursement conditions or Borrower terminates the Agreement
pursuant to Section 3.2, Borrower nevertheless shall pay all costs and expenses
incurred by Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein
promptly upon receipt of an invoice from Lender, and this Agreement shall

4. GENERAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower hereby covenants, represents
and warrants to Lender as follows:
     4.1. Organization. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries: (a) is duly
organized, validly existing and (except for Bank and any other Depository
Institution Subsidiary of Borrower that is a federally chartered savings bank)

formation; (b) has all requisite power and authority, corporate or otherwise, to
own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its business as now being
conducted; and (c) is duly qualified as a foreign bank or corporation and in
good standing in all states in which it is doing business, except where it is
not required to qualify or where the failure to so qualify would not have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or
business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Borrower has made
payment of all franchise and similar taxes in the State of Wisconsin, and in all
of the jurisdictions in which it is qualified to do business, and so far as such
taxes are due and payable at the date of this Agreement and not otherwise being
contested in good faith. Borrower does not have any Subsidiaries other than
those set forth in Schedule 4.1 of the Disclosure Schedule.
     4.2. Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists
of: (a) 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which, as of the date of this
Agreement, (i) 21,689,117 shares are issued and outstanding, (ii) 510,670 shares
are reserved for issuance upon exercise of options and other awards granted
under the Company’s stock option and incentive plans and (iii) 7,399,103 are
reserved for issuance upon exercise of the warrant, dated January 30, 2009, held

Preferred Stock, liquidation preference $100.00 per share, none of which are
issued and outstanding, and (ii) 110,000 have been designated as Fixed Rate
Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, liquidation preference $1,000.00
per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), all of which are issued and outstanding
and held by the U.S. Treasury. All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and
Series B Preferred Stock have been duly authorized, are validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and were offered, sold and issued in compliance with all
applicable federal and state securities laws and without violating any
contractual obligation or any other preemptive or similar rights.
     4.3. Stock of Subsidiaries. All of the capital stock of each of Borrower’s
Subsidiaries has been duly authorized and validly issued, and is fully paid and
nonassessable. Borrower owns directly or indirectly all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of each of its Subsidiaries free and clear of any
claim, lien or other encumbrance, except for the security interest in the
capital stock of Bank granted to U.S. Bank National Association and other
participating financial institutions pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement.
     4.4. Use of Proceeds.
          4.4.1. The proceeds of the Loans shall be contributed by Borrower to
the capital of Bank.
          4.4.2. Borrower does not own any “margin security” as such term is
defined in Regulation U of the FRB. Borrower will not use any part of the
proceeds of the Loans: (i) directly or

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

indirectly to purchase or carry any security or reduce or retire any
indebtedness originally incurred to purchase any such security within the
meaning of Regulation U of the Board; or (ii) so as to involve Borrower in a
violation of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB.
     4.5. Financial Statements. Borrower has delivered to Lender copies of its
consolidated financial statements, consisting of a balance sheet, statement of
income and retained earnings and statement of cash flows, as of and for the year
ending March 31, 2009, and as of and for the six months ending September 30,
2009, audited in the case of Borrower’s year end financial statements by
Borrower’s certified public accountants (the “Financial Statements”). The
Financial Statements are true and correct in all material respects, are in
accordance with the respective books of account and records of Borrower and have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP, or applicable banking rules and
regulations, as the case may be, applied on a basis consistent with prior
periods, and fairly and accurately present the consolidated financial condition
of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and its and their respective assets and
liabilities and results of operations as of such date. The Financial Statements
contain and reflect provisions for taxes, reserves and other liabilities of
Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP or applicable
banking rules and regulations, as the case may be.
     4.6. Title to Properties.
          4.6.1. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable fee
title to all real property, and good and marketable title to all other property
and assets reflected in the latest balance sheet included as part of the
Financial Statements or purported to have been acquired by Borrower or its
Subsidiaries subsequent to such date, except (a) real property and other assets
acquired and/or being acquired from debtors in full or partial satisfaction of
obligations owed to Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be,
(b) property or other assets leased by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, and
(c) property and assets sold or otherwise disposed of subsequent to the date of
such balance sheet. Except for properties and other assets acquired and/or being
acquired from debtors in full or partial satisfaction of obligations owed to
Borrower or any Subsidiary and properties or other assets leased by Borrower or
any Subsidiary, and except as disclosed in the Financial Statements, all
material property and assets of any kind (real or personal, tangible or
intangible) of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are free from any material
liens, encumbrances or defects in title.
          4.6.2. Except as reflected in the Financial Statements, none of the
assets or property the value of which is reflected in the latest balance sheet
that is included as part of the Financial Statements is held by Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries as lessee under any lease, or as conditional vendee under
any conditional sales contract or other title retention agreement. Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession under all of
the material leases under which they are operating, all of which permit the
customary operations of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries. None of Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries in default and, to Borrower’s knowledge, no event has
occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
reasonably be expected to constitute a default under any such lease, except for
any default or potential default which would not reasonably be expected to have
a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or
business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
     4.7. Legal and Authorized. The borrowing of the maximum principal amounts
of the Loans, the execution and performance of this Agreement, the Note, the
Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents and compliance by Borrower with
all of the provisions of this Agreement and of the other Loan Documents are
within the corporate powers of Borrower. Each of this Agreement, the Note, the
Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents has been duly authorized, executed
and delivered and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, and is
enforceable in accordance with its

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other laws and subject to general principles of
equity.
     4.8. No Defaults or Restrictions. Neither the execution, delivery or
performance by Borrower of any of the Loan Documents, nor compliance by it with
the terms and provisions hereof or thereof: (a) will contravene any provision of
any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction
or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality; (b) will conflict with
or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions
of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of
(or the obligation to create or impose) any lien upon any of the property or
assets of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, loan agreement or any
other agreement, contract or instrument to which Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound
or to which it may be subject; or (c) will violate any provision of the charter
or bylaws of Borrower or the organizational documents, charter or bylaws of any
of its Subsidiaries, except in the case of (a), (b) or (c), any such
contravention, conflict, breach, default, lien or violation which would not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, results of operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, or which would not prevent Borrower from fulfilling its
obligations under the Loan Documents in any material respect. Neither Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries is in material default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any of the terms, obligations, covenants,
conditions or provisions contained in any indenture or other agreement creating,
evidencing or securing indebtedness of any kind or pursuant to which any such
indebtedness is issued, or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound
or affected, which default would reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or business of
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
     4.9. Governmental Consent. No order, consent, approval, license,
authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with
(except as have been obtained or made prior to the date of this Agreement or
pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement), or exemption by, any governmental or
public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize,
or is required in connection with: (a) the execution, delivery and performance
by Borrower of this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents; or (b) the legality, validity, binding effect or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.
     4.10. Taxes. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed and will
continue to file all tax returns required to be filed by it and has paid and
will pay all income taxes payable by it which have become due pursuant to such
tax returns and all other taxes and assessments payable by it which have become
due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for those contested in good
faith and for which adequate reserves have been established. Each of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries has paid, or has provided adequate reserves (in the good
faith judgment of the management of Borrower) for the payment of, all federal
and state income taxes applicable for all prior fiscal years and for the current
fiscal year to the date hereof. Borrower has no knowledge of any audit,
assessment or other proposed action or inquiry of the Internal Revenue Service
or any other taxing authority with respect to any tax liability of Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries.
     4.11. Compliance with Law. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries is and
will continue to be in material compliance with all applicable statutes,
regulations and orders of, and all applicable material restrictions imposed by,
all governmental bodies, domestic or foreign, in respect of the conduct of its
business and the ownership of its property (including applicable statutes,
regulations, orders and restrictions relating to environmental standards and
controls), except such noncompliance as would not,

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the financial condition,
results of operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole.
     4.12. Employee Benefit Plans. All employee benefit plans, as defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA, established or maintained by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or to which any of them contributes, are in compliance in all
material respects with all applicable requirements of ERISA, and are in
compliance in all material respects with all applicable material requirements
(including qualification and non-discrimination requirements in effect) of the
Code, for obtaining the tax benefits the Code thereupon permits with respect to
such employee benefit plans. For purposes of this Section, non-compliance with
the Code and ERISA is material if such non-compliance would reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results
of operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
     4.13. No Material Adverse Change. Except as listed on Schedule 4.13, Since
March 31, 2009, none of the business, operations, properties or assets of
Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole has been materially and adversely
affected in any way as the result of any act or event, including fire,
explosion, accident, act of God, strike, lockout, flood, drought, storm,
earthquake, combination of workers or other labor disturbance, riot, activity of
armed forces or of the public enemy, embargo, or nationalization, condemnation,
requisition or taking of property, or cancellation or modification of contracts,
by any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency.
     4.14. Regulatory Actions. Except as listed on Schedule 4.14, Neither
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of the officers or directors or
any of them, is now operating under any restrictions, agreements, memoranda, or
commitments (other than restrictions of general application) imposed by any
Governmental Agency, nor are any such restrictions to the knowledge of Borrower
threatened or agreements, memoranda or commitments being sought by any
Governmental Agency.
     4.15. Hazardous Materials. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is
in material violation of any applicable statute, regulation, ordinance or policy
of any governmental entity relating to the ecology, human health, safety or the
environment and, to Borrower’s knowledge, no Hazardous Material is located on
any real property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or has
been discharged from or to, or penetrated into, any real property (or surface or
subsurface rivers or streams crossing or adjoining any real property) owned or
leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the aquifer underlying any real
property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.
     4.16. Pending Litigation. Except as listed on Schedule 4.16, there are no
actions, suits, proceedings or written agreements pending, or, to the best
knowledge of Borrower, threatened, against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
at law or in equity or before or by any federal, state, municipal, or other
governmental department, commission, board, or other administrative agency,
domestic or foreign. To the best knowledge of Borrower, nothing disclosed on
Schedule 4.16 would, if adversely determined, be reasonably expected to have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or
business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and none of Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default with respect to any material order,
writ, injunction, or decree of, or any written agreement with, any court,
commission, board or agency, domestic or foreign.
     4.17. Controls and Procedures. Borrower (i) has implemented and maintains
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange
Act) to ensure that material information relating to Borrower, including its
subsidiaries, is made known to the chief executive officer and the chief
financial officer of Borrower by others within those entities, and (ii) has
disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to

or other employees who have a significant role in Borrower’s internal controls
over financial reporting.
     4.18. Anti-takeover Provisions Not Applicable. The Board of Directors has
taken or will take all necessary action to ensure that the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement will be deemed approved by the Board of Directors
for the purposes of Section 180.1143 of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law.
     4.19. Investment Company Act. None of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,”
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
     4.20. No Misstatement of Material Fact. No information, exhibit, report or
document furnished by Borrower to Lender in connection with the negotiation or
execution of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents contained any
material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact or any fact
necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading when taken as
a whole, all as of the date when furnished to Lender.
     4.21. Representations and Warranties Generally. The representations and
warranties set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will be

Borrower pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to

the Loans and all disbursements thereunder) and, furthermore, shall survive the
making of any or all of the disbursements of proceeds under the Loans and
continue in full force and effect as long as there remains unperformed any
obligations to Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

amendment or alteration of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Note
or the other Loan Documents, other than income taxes, (ii) any interest or
penalties resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of such expenses,
charges, disbursements, liabilities or taxes, and (iii) any income taxes in
respect of any reimbursement by Borrower for any of such violations, taxes,
interests or penalties paid by Lender. The obligations of Borrower under this
Section 6.3 shall survive the repayment in full of the Note, the conversion of
the Note or the termination of this Agreement. Any of the foregoing amounts

whole; or

admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature; or suspends
transaction of its usual business; or if a trustee of any substantial part of
the assets of Borrower or Bank is applied for or appointed, and if appointed in
a proceeding brought against Borrower, Borrower by any action or failure to act
indicates its approval of, consent to, or acquiescence in such appointment, or
within 60 days after such appointment, such appointment is not vacated or stayed
on appeal or otherwise, or shall not otherwise have ceased to continue in
effect; or

               8.1.1.17. Bank applies for, consents to or acquiesces in the
appointment of a receiver for itself, or in the absence of such application,

covenant contained in any agreement (including, without limitation, an agreement
in connection with the acquisition of capital equipment on a title retention or
net lease basis), under which any such obligation is created the effect of which
default is to cause or permit the holder of such obligation to cause such

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     8.2. Protective Advances. If an Event of Default occurs, Lender may (but
shall in no event be required to) cure any such Event of Default and any amounts

discretion, shall (a) be deemed advanced by Lender under an obligation to do so

furnished, (b) constitute additional advances hereunder, the payment of which is
additional indebtedness evidenced by the Note, and (c) become due and owing, at

discretion, require that any amounts due and owing by Borrower to Lender

Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount due and
owing by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Section 8.2 by (ii) the Conversion

no liability for any loss, damage, injury, cost or expense resulting from any
action or omission by it, or any of its representatives, which was taken,
omitted or made in good faith, other than any loss, damage, injury, cost or
expense arising by reason of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
Lender or any of its Affiliates.
     8.5. Lender’s Fees and Expenses. In case of any Event of Default hereunder,
Borrower shall pay Lender’s reasonable fees and expenses including, without
limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with the enforcement of
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or other related documents.
9. MISCELLANEOUS.
     9.1. Release; Indemnification. Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and
all causes of action, claims or rights which Borrower may now or hereafter have
for, or which may arise from, any loss or damage caused by or resulting from
(a) any failure of Lender to protect, enforce or collect in whole or in part any
of the Collateral and (b) any other act or omission to act on the part of
Lender, its officers, agents or employees, except in each instance for willful
misconduct or gross negligence, and except for any breach by Lender of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold
Lender and its Affiliates harmless from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, obligations, penalties, claims, fines, demands, litigation,
defenses, costs, judgments, suits, proceedings, actual damages, disbursements or
expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation,
attorneys’ fees and expenses) which may at any time be either directly or
indirectly imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against Lender or
any of Lender’s Affiliates in connection with, arising from or relating to
Lender’s entering into or carrying out the terms of this Agreement or being the
holder of the Note, other than any loss, liability, damage, suit, claim,
expense, fees or costs arising solely by reason of Lender’s or any of Lender’s
Affiliates’ willful misconduct or gross negligence. This section shall survive
the termination of this Agreement.
     9.2. Assignment and Participation. Lender may pledge or otherwise
hypothecate all or any portion of this Agreement or grant participations herein
(provided Lender acts as agent for any participants, except as provided below)
or in any of its rights and security hereunder, including, without limitation,
the Note. Lender may also assign all or any part of the Loan and Lender’s
obligations in connection therewith to one or more commercial banks or other
financial institutions or investors with the consent of Borrower, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld (each an “Assignee

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Lender”). Lender shall notify Borrower in advance of the identity of any
proposed Assignee Lender. Upon delivery to Borrower of an executed copy of the
Assignee Lender’s assignment and acceptance (a) each such Assignee Lender shall
be deemed to be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations
hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee Lender, such
Assignee Lender shall have the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and other related documents (b) Lender, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by
it, shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, the obligation to fund the Assignee
Lender’s share of the Loans) and other related documents, except for any
liability from actions or omissions of Lender occurring prior to such
assignment. Within five Business Days after receipt of a copy of the executed
assignment and acceptance document, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender
a new Note or Notes, as applicable (for delivery to the relevant Assignee
Lender), evidencing such Assignee Lender’s assigned portion of the Loans and a
replacement Note or Notes, as applicable, in the principal amount of the Loans
retained by Lender (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the
Note then held by Lender). Such Note shall be dated the date of the predecessor
Note. Lender shall mark the predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver it to
Borrower. Accrued interest on that part of the predecessor Note evidenced by the
new Note, and accrued fees, shall be paid as provided in the assignment
agreement between Lender and to the Assignee Lender. Accrued interest on that
part of the predecessor Note evidenced by the replacement Note shall be paid to
Lender. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be so apportioned between the
Notes and paid at the same time or times provided in the predecessor Note and in
this Agreement. Borrower authorizes Lender to disclose to any prospective
Assignee Lender any financial or other information pertaining to Borrower or the
Loans, provided that such prospective Assignee Lender agrees in writing not to
disclose such information to any other Person, except as required by law or
regulation or as agreed to by Borrower. In addition, Borrower agrees that, if so
requested by Lender, Borrower will cause all insurance policies, binders and
commitments (including, without limitation, casualty insurance and title
insurance) required by the Loan Documents or other related documents to be
delivered to Lender to name the Assignee Lender as an additional insured or
obligee, as Lender may request. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or
procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section 9.2, Lender
may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of
its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents and other related documents to
a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release
Lender from its obligations thereunder.
     9.3. Prohibition on Assignment. Borrower shall not assign or attempt to
assign its rights under this Agreement, either voluntarily or by operation of
law.
     9.4. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
     9.5. No Waiver. No waiver of any term, provision, condition, covenant or
agreement herein contained shall be effective unless set forth in a writing
signed by Lender, and any such waiver shall be effective only to the extent set
forth in such writing. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising, by Lender
or any holder of the Note, of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the
exercise of any other right or remedy provided by law. The rights and remedies
provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or
remedy provided by law or equity. No notice or demand on Borrower in any case
shall, in itself, entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to
any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No
consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by Lender to or of any breach or
default by Borrower in the performance of its obligations hereunder shall be
deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or
default in the performance of the same or any other obligations of Borrower
hereunder.

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Failure on the part of Lender to complain of any acts or failure to act or to
declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues,
shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of its rights hereunder or impair any
rights, powers or remedies on account of any breach or default by Borrower.
     9.6. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is unenforceable
or invalid or contrary to law, or the inclusion of which would adversely affect
the validity, legality or enforcement of this Agreement, shall be of no effect
and, in such case, all the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement
shall subsist and be fully effective according to the tenor of this Agreement
the same as though any such invalid portion had never been included herein.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if any provisions of this
Agreement or the application thereof are held invalid or unenforceable only as
to particular persons or situations, the remainder of this Agreement, and the
application of such provision to persons or situations other than those to which
it shall have been held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby,
but shall continue valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
     9.7. Usury; Revival of Liabilities. All agreements between Borrower and
Lender (including, without limitation, this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents) are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount
paid or agreed to be paid to Lender exceed the highest lawful rate of interest
permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois. If, from any circumstances
whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other Loan Documents,
at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding
the limit of validity prescribed by law which a court of competent jurisdiction
may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled
shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the
laws of the State of Illinois, and if for any reason whatsoever, Lender shall
ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such interest
shall be applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments
of the indebtedness secured by the Collateral (whether or not then due and
payable) and not to the payment of interest. To the extent that Lender received
any payment on account of Borrower’s Liabilities and any such payment(s) and/or
proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside, subordinated and/or required to be repaid
to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy act, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such
payment(s) or proceeds received, Borrower’s Liabilities or part thereof intended
to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if
such payment(s) and/or proceeds had not been received by Lender and applied on
account of Borrower’s Liabilities; provided, however, if Lender successfully
contests any such invalidation, declaration, set aside, subordination or other
order to pay any such payment and/or proceeds to any third party, the revived
Borrower’s Liabilities shall be deemed satisfied.
     9.8. Notices. Any notice which either party hereto may be required or may
desire to give hereunder shall be deemed to have been given if in writing and if
delivered personally, or if mailed, postage prepaid, by United States registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, or if delivered by a responsible
overnight courier, addressed:

limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), consequential or otherwise, which may

warranty, covenant, obligation or other agreement that is not set forth herein
or in the other Loan Documents.
     9.16. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to limit any rights, powers or privileges which Lender may have

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF NOTE

      $110,000,00   Chicago, Illinois                               , 2010      

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, ANCHOR BANCORP WISCONSIN INC., a
Wisconsin corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of BADGER
ANCHOR HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or the holder hereof
from time to time (“Lender”), at such place as may be designated in writing by
Lender, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED TEN MILLION DOLLARS ($110,000,000),
with interest thereon as hereinafter provided. This note (this “Note”) is issued
pursuant to the terms of a Loan Agreement of even date herewith by and between
Borrower and Lender, as amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to
time, the “Loan Agreement”). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.
     Interest shall accrue on all sums as advanced and outstanding from time to
time under this Note and Loan Agreement as set forth in the Loan Agreement, and
such interest shall be due and payable on the last day of each March, June,
September and December as set forth in the Loan Agreement, commencing on the
first such date following the Closing. All sums owing hereunder are payable in
lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds;
provided, however, that a portion of each interest payment may be paid in shares
of Borrower common stock as set forth in the Loan Agreement.
     The outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued
and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Additional
principal payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the Loan
Agreement.
     This Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock as set forth in the
Loan Agreement.
     This Note is issued pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and is
secured by and entitled to the benefits of, among other things, the Term
Collateral Documents. In case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
the principal of this Note together with all accrued interest thereon may, at
the option of the holder hereof, immediately become due and payable on demand;
provided, however, that if any document related to this Note provides for
automatic acceleration of payment of sums owing hereunder, all sums owing
hereunder shall be automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of
that document.
     Unless otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, all payments on account of
the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be first applied to the payment of
costs and expenses of Lender which are due and payable, then to past-due
interest on the unpaid principal balance and the remainder to principal.
     If any interest payment required hereunder is not received by Lender on or
before the tenth day following the date it becomes due, Borrower shall pay, at
Lender’s option, a late or collection charge equal to 5.00% of the amount of
such unpaid interest payment.
     From and after the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as all sums owing on
this Note become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, interest shall be computed on all amounts
then due and payable under this Note at a “Default Rate” equal to 300 basis
points per annum (based on a 360-day year and charged on the basis of actual
days elapsed) in excess of the interest rate otherwise accruing under this Note.

A-1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     If any attorney is engaged by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of
this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or as a consequence of any Event
of Default, with or without the filing of any legal action or proceeding, then
Borrower shall pay to Lender immediately upon demand all attorneys’ fees and
expenses, together with interest thereon from the date of such demand until paid
at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance owing hereunder as
if such unpaid attorneys’ fees and expenses had been added to the principal.
     No previous waiver and no failure or delay by Lender or Borrower in acting
with respect to the terms of this Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall
constitute a waiver of any breach, default or failure of condition under this
Note, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the obligations
secured thereby. A waiver of any term of this Note or any of the other Loan
Documents or of any of the obligations secured thereby must be made in writing
and shall be limited to the express written terms of such waiver. In the event
of any inconsistencies between the terms of this Note and the terms of any other
document related to the Loan evidenced by this Note, the terms of this Note
shall prevail.
     Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, Borrower expressly
waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, notice of default or
delinquency, notice of acceleration, notice of protest and nonpayment, notice of
costs, expenses or losses and interest thereon, notice of late charges, and
diligence in taking any action to collect any sums owing under this Note or in
proceeding against any of the rights or interests in or to properties securing
payment of this Note. In addition, Borrower expressly agrees that this Note and
any payment coming due hereunder may be extended from time to time without in
any way affecting the liability of any such party hereunder.
     Time is of the essence with respect to every provision hereof. This Note
shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
Illinois, except to the extent that federal laws preempt the laws of the State
of Illinois, and all persons and entities in any manner obligated under this
Note consent to the jurisdiction of any Federal or State court within the State
of Illinois having proper venue and also consent to service of process by any
means authorized by Illinois or Federal law. Any reference contained herein to
attorneys’ fees and expenses shall be deemed to be to reasonable fees and
expenses and to include all reasonable fees and expenses of third-party
attorneys and the reasonable fees and expenses of any other experts or
consultants.
     All agreements between Borrower and Lender (including, without limitation,
this Note and the Loan Agreement, and any other documents securing all or any
part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby) are expressly limited so that in no
event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender exceed the
highest lawful rate of interest permissible under applicable law. If, from any
circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, the Loan
Agreement or any other documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby at the time performance of such provisions shall be due, shall
involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law which a court of
competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the
obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of
interest permissible under such applicable laws, and if, for any reason
whatsoever, Lender shall ever receive as interest an amount which would be
deemed unlawful under such applicable law, such interest shall be automatically
applied to the payment of the principal of this Note (whether or not then due
and payable) and not to the payment of interest or refunded to Borrower if such
principal has been paid in full.
     Any notice which either party hereto may be required or may desire to give
hereunder shall be governed by the notice provisions of the Loan Agreement.
