    WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 14

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration

    Section 1.  Amendment to the Agreement. 
      Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, as of the Amendment Effective Date, the following changes shall be made to the Agreement as if set forth therein:

    

    

    

    	
            (a)

          	
            Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby revised to indicate that Executive’s position is “Senior Vice President and Commercial Lending Officer.” All
              references in the Agreement to “Senior Vice President and Chief Lending Officer” of the Bank are hereby amended and replaced with “Senior Vice President – Commercial Lending Officer” of the Bank;

             

            

          
	
            (b)

          	
            Section 2(a) of the Agreement is hereby revised to reflect that the term of the Agreement shall be for a period of eighteen (18) months from the
              Effective Date set forth in the Agreement and shall be non-renewing;

             

            

          
	
            (c)

          	
            Section 2(d) of the Agreement is hereby revised to reflect that Executive shall devote approximately twenty (20) hours per week to the faithful
              performance of his duties as Senior Vice President and Commercial Lending Officer;

             

            

          
	
            (d)

          	
            Section 3(a) of the Agreement is hereby revised to reflect the Executive’s annualized rate of Base Salary for the remainder of the Agreement shall
              be One Hundred Ten Thousand Dollars ($110,000). For these purposes, Executive shall receive fifty percent (50%) of the full time pay previously credited for Bank holidays;

             

            

          
	
            (e)

          	
            Section 3(c) of the Agreement is hereby revised to reflect that the Executive shall no longer receive paid health care coverage from the Bank but

            (f)

          	
            Section 3(d) of the Agreement is hereby revised to reflect that Executive’s future paid time off shall be pro-rated to reflect his reduced hours of
              employment.  For calendar year 2023, Executive shall be entitled to 132 hours of paid time off, subject to reduction to the extent Executive works for less than 12 months in 2023;

             

            

          
	
            (g)

          	
            Section 4(c) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety;

             

            

          
	
            (h)

          	
            Section 5(c) of the Agreement is hereby revised to provide that the lump sum cash payment to which Executive would be entitled thereunder is equal
              to “one and one-half times the sum of (i) Executive’s rate of Base Salary at the time of the Change in Control and (ii) one half of the highest bonus paid to Executive with respect to the three completed fiscal years prior to the Change in
              Control.”; and

             

            

          
	
            (i)

          	
            Section 5(d) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety.

          


     

    

    Section 2.  Acknowledgement.  By executing
      and agreeing to this Amendment, Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that the change in Executive’s title, duties and responsibilities, and reduction in Base Salary and benefits, as each is set forth in Section 1 above, which changes are
      effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, do not constitute a “Good Reason” for Executive’s resignation under Sections 4(a) of the Agreement, and do not entitle Executive to the payments and benefits set forth in Section 4(b) of the Agreement.

    

    

    Section 3.  Continuation of Agreement. 
      Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Agreement, all of which are
      ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect and shall be otherwise unaffected.

    

    

    Section 4.  Governing Law.  This Amendment
      and the rights and obligations hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

    
      
        


    

    

    

    Section 5.  Counterparts.  This Amendment may
      be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

    

    

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Bank and the Executive have duly executed this Amendment as of the day and year first written above.
