**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers, Election of Directors, Appointment of Certain Officers, Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

On February 3, 2023, First Business Bank (the "Bank") entered into the Second Amended and Restated Agreement (the "Amended Employment Agreement") with Corey A. Chambas, Chief Executive Officer of First Business Financial Services, Inc. (the "Company"), providing for certain amendments to Mr. Chambas's employment arrangements with the Company and the Bank under his previous Employment Agreement dated December 22, 2014, as amended (the "Previous Employment Agreement").

As a result of the amendments to the Previous Employment Agreement, under the Amended Employment Agreement, Mr. Chambas's Normal Retirement Benefit and Early Retirement Benefit, each as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement, will be determined based on his highest Aggregate Compensation for the year of separation and the immediately preceding three years. For this purpose, "Aggregate Compensation" for any year will be equal to the aggregate of his base salary for the year and the highest of (i) the amount of his target bonus for the year of separation, (ii) the average of his actual bonuses earned, if any, for the two immediately preceding years, or (iii) the average of the amounts of actual bonuses earned, if any, for the three immediately preceding years. Under the Previous Employment Agreement, Mr. Chambas's Normal Retirement Benefit and Early Retirement Benefit were calculated the based on the aggregate of his base salary for the year in which the separation occurred and the highest of (x) the amount of his target bonus for the year, (y) the average of the amounts of his actual bonuses, if any, for the two immediately preceding years, or (z) the average of the amounts of his actual bonuses, if any, for the three immediately preceding years.

The obligations of the Company and the Bank under the Amended Employment Agreement are premised upon and conditioned upon Mr. Chambas being employed in a senior executive position.

The foregoing description of the material amendments to the Previous Employment Agreement is not intended to be complete, and is qualified in all respects by the text of the Amended Employment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with his entry into the Amended Employment Agreement, on February 3, 2023, Mr. Chambas agreed to amendments to the Award Agreements (the "Award Agreements") relating to the restricted stock and the performance-based restricted stock awarded to him by the Company on February 16, 2021 under the Plan (as defined below) to delete the provision providing for vesting of the respective awards upon a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the Plan). As a result of the amendments, the Award Agreements default to the change in control vesting provisions of the Plan, which provide for vesting upon the occurrence of both a Change in Control and certain terminations of the participant's employment within the subsequent 24 months. Forms of each of the Award Agreement amendments are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3, respectively.

**<u>AGREEMENT</u>**

**THIS** **SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT** (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of this 3rd day of February 2023, by and between First Business Bank, a Wisconsin corporation ("FBB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of First Business Financial Services, Inc., a Wisconsin Corporation (the "Parent"), and Corey Chambas, an Officer of FBB and Chief Executive Officer of the Parent (the "Executive"). The parties agree that the certain agreements between them made and entered into as of December 22, 2014, as amended by the First Amendment entered into on December 29th, 2016 (the "Prior Agreement"), will be replaced by this Agreement and is no longer in effect.

**<u>WITNESSETH</u>** **:**

**WHEREAS**, it is desirable to amend and restate the Prior Agreement as set forth herein; and

**WHEREAS**, the Parent shall provide or cause FBB to provide the Executive and/or his beneficiaries with the death and retirement benefits set forth in this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and said benefits shall be in addition to the Executive's regular compensation, bonus and employee benefits; and

**WHEREAS**, the Board of Directors of FBB and the Board have approved FBB and the Parent entering into this Agreement with the Executive; and

**WHEREAS**, the Executive has discharged the duties as a senior executive in a very capable and skillful manner, resulting in substantial benefits to the Parent and FBB (collectively the "Company", as further defined below); and

**WHEREAS**, the Company desires the Executive to remain in its service and to continue to use his knowledge and experience on behalf of the Company, and is willing to continue to offer the Executive an incentive to do so in the form of death and retirement benefits; and

**WHEREAS**, the Executive is willing to continue his efforts on behalf of the Company in exchange for such an incentive; and

**WHEREAS**, should the possibility of a Change in Control arise, in addition to the Executive's regular duties, he may be called upon to assist in the assessment of such possible Change in Control, advise management and the Board as to whether such Change in Control would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and to take such other actions as the Board might determine to be appropriate.

**NOW, THEREFORE**, to assure the Company that it will have the continued dedication of the Executive and the availability of his advice and counsel notwithstanding the possibility, threat, or occurrence of a Change in Control, and to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Executive agree as follows.

**ARTICLE 1. DEFINITIONS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.1 <u>Definitions</u>**. Whenever used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below, and, when the meaning is intended, the initial letter of the word is capitalized:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) "Beneficiary" means the persons or entities designated by the Executive pursuant to Section 10.2 herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) "Cause" shall be determined by the Board, in the exercise of good faith and reasonable judgment, and shall mean any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The willful, intentional, and continued failure by the Executive to substantially perform the Executive's duties to the best of the Executive's ability after a written demand for performance is delivered by the Board to the Executive that identifies the failure to perform such duties if such failure is not remedied within ninety (90) calendar days after receipt of the written demand by the Executive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The occurrence of the Executive's conviction for committing an act of fraud, embezzlement, theft, or other act constituting a felony substantially related to the circumstances of the Executive's duties; or material breach by the Executive of the banking laws of Wisconsin or the United States or any regulation issued by a state or federal regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the banking affairs of the Company, or any of its subsidiary, parent, or affiliated organizations; or an act which disqualifies the Executive from serving as an officer or director of a bank under Wisconsin or Federal banking laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any person (as defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof), including a group (as defined in Section 13(d)), becomes the Beneficial Owner (as such term is defined pursuant to rules promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) During any twelve (12) consecutive months, individuals who, at the beginning of the twelve- (12-) month period constitute the Board, cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board; provided, however, a "Change in Control" shall not occur pursuant to this provision, if a new director is approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors serving on the Board and these directors either were directors at the beginning of the twelve- (12-) month period or whose election or nomination for election was so approved; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The shareholders of the Company approve: (A) a plan of complete liquidation of the Company; or (B) an agreement for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the Company's assets; or (C) a merger, consolidation, or reorganization of the Company with or involving any other corporation, other than a merger, consolidation, or reorganization that would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity), at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company (or such surviving entity) outstanding immediately after or within one (1) year following such merger, consolidation, or reorganization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) However, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred, with respect to the Executive, if the Executive is part of a purchasing group which consummates the Change-in-Control transaction. The Executive shall be deemed "part of a purchasing group" for purposes of the preceding sentence if the Executive is an equity participant in the purchasing company or group (except for passive ownership of less than three (3%) percent of the stock of the purchasing company or ownership of equity participation in the purchasing company or group which is otherwise not significant, as determined prior to the Change in Control by a majority of the nonemployee continuing members of the Board).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) "Company" means Parent and/or FBB , including any and all of their subsidiaries, or any successor thereto as provided in ARTICLE 9 herein, except as otherwise provided in Section 1.1(e)(3). For purposes of the Executive's separation from service (as defined in Code Section 409A and any regulations thereunder) with the Company, "Company" includes any other entity related to the Company (within the meaning of Code Section 414(b), (c) or (m)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) "Death Benefit" means the benefit payable to the Beneficiary pursuant to Section 3.1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) "Early Retirement Benefit" means the retirement benefit payable to the Executive pursuant to Section 2.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) "Executive" shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the first paragraph of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) "Highest Aggregate Compensation" means with respect to any calendar year in which the Executive's separation from service with the Company occurs, an amount determined by calculating Executive's Aggregate Compensation for year of the separation and the immediately preceding three (3) years and then using the highest Aggregate Compensation among those years, which amount shall be the Highest Aggregate Compensation. For this purpose, Executive's Aggregate Compensation for any year shall be equal to the aggregate of Executive's base salary for the year and the highest of the following: (i) the amount of his target bonus for the year of separation, (ii) the average of his actual bonuses earned, if any, for the two (2) immediately preceding years, or (iii) the average of the amounts of actual bonuses earned, if any, for the three (3) immediately preceding years. For illustrative purposes only, if the Executive's separation occurred in 2025, the Highest Aggregate Compensation would be calculated by determining the Aggregate Compensation for each of 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 and then using the highest of those measurement years. The 2025 Aggregate Compensation would be equal to the Executive's salary for 2025 plus the highest of (i) Executive's target bonus for 2025, (ii) the average of Executive's actual bonuses for 2023 and 2024, or (iii) the average of Executive's actual bonuses for 2022, 2023, and 2024. The 2024, 2023, and 2022 Aggregate Compensation amounts would each be calculated in a similar manner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) "Normal Retirement Age" means the first day of the month following the month in which the Executive reaches age sixty-five (65).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) "Normal Retirement Benefit" means the retirement benefit payable to the Executive pursuant to Section 2.1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) "Parachute Payment" means a "parachute payment" as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) "Retirement Date" means the effective date of the retirement of the Executive pursuant to ARTICLE 2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) "Salary", for purposes of any severance benefit described in ARTICLE 5 or ARTICLE 6, means, with respect to any calendar year in which the Executive's separation from service with the Company occurs, the aggregate of the Executive's base salary for the year and the highest of the following: (i) the amount of his target bonus for the year, (ii) the average of his actual bonuses, if any, for the two (2) immediately preceding years, or (iii) the average of the amounts of his actual bonuses, if any, for the three (3) immediately preceding years); provided, however, that for purposes of the retirement benefits payable in ARTICLE 2 or any corresponding provision in this Agreement relating to such retirement benefits, "Salary" means Highest Aggregate Compensation. For purposes of this Agreement, Salary shall be calculated based on the date of actual separation from service, even if the Executive is deemed to remain employed after such separation under ARTICLE 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) "Specified Employee" means a key employee (as defined in Code Section 416(i) without regard to paragraph (5) thereof) as determined by the Company based upon the twelve (12)-month period ending on each December 31st (such 12-month period is referred to below as the "identification period"). If the Executive is determined to be a key employee, the Executive shall be treated as a Specified Employee for purposes of this Agreement during the 12-month period that begins on the April 1 following the close of the identification period. For purposes of determining whether the Executive is a key employee, "compensation" means the Executive's W-2 compensation as reported by the Company for a particular calendar year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) "Total Disability" means that the Executive:

**ARTICLE 2. RETIREMENT BENEFIT**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.1 <u>Normal Retirement Benefit</u>**. Upon the Executive's separation from service with the Company at or after Normal Retirement Age ("Normal Retirement"), the Company shall become obligated to pay to the Executive a retirement benefit equal to sixty percent (60%) of the Executive's Salary, payable yearly for ten (10) years, beginning on the fifteenth (15th) day following the Retirement Date and on the next nine (9) anniversaries of the first payment. In the event of the Executive's death before the total amount due under this Section 2.1 has been paid, the Company shall pay to the Beneficiary, or, if none, the Executive's estate, the remaining annual payments on the schedule established at the Executive's Normal Retirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.2 <u>Early Retirement Benefit</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Executive may retire at any time after the Executive has been employed by the Company for twenty-three (23) consecutive years ("Early Retirement"). The Executive's date of initial employment with the Company is December 1, 1993, and, therefore, if there is no interruption in consecutive years of employment, the Executive may retire at any time after December 1, 2016. Upon the Executive's separation from service with the Company due to Early Retirement, the Company shall become obligated to pay to the Executive a retirement benefit equal to sixty percent (60%) of the Executive's Salary, multiplied by a vesting percentage described below, payable for ten (10) years, beginning on the fifteenth (15<sup>th</sup>) day following the Retirement Date and on the next nine (9) anniversaries of the first payment. In the event of the Executive's death before the total amount due under this Section 2.2(a) has been paid, the Company shall pay to the Beneficiary, or, if none, the Executive's estate, the remaining annual payments on the schedule established at the Executive's Early Retirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) When the Executive has completed twenty-three (23) years of consecutive employment with the Company, the vesting percentage shall be twenty-three thirty-fourths (23/34), or sixty-seven and 65/100 percent (.6765). The numerator twenty–three (23) used to determine the vesting percentage shall increase by one (1) for each subsequent year of consecutive service with the Company above twenty-three (23) through thirty-four (34). Therefore, for example, if the Executive's separation from service occurs after twenty-seven (27) years of consecutive service the vesting percentage shall be twenty-seven thirty-fourths (27/34), or seventy-nine and 41/100 percent (.7941). For another example, if the Executive's separation from service occurs after thirty-four (34) years of service, the vesting percentage shall be thirty-four thirty-fourths (34/34) or one hundred percent (100%), and the Executive shall be entitled to the Normal Retirement Benefit, rather than an Early Retirement Benefit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.3 <u>Withholding of Taxes</u>**. The Company shall withhold from any amounts payable under this ARTICLE 2 all federal, state, city, local, or other taxes as may be required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.4 <u>Notice of Retirement</u>**. The Executive shall give the Board at least one (1) year's notice of his intent to retire, in writing. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Executive nor, in the event of his death, the Beneficiary or, if none, the Executive's estate shall be entitled to any benefit under this ARTICLE 2 until the Board has been given the notice required by this Section 2.4, and the Executive has worked, or offered to work, for the notice period of one (1) year; provided, however, no notice of intent to retire is required if the Executive chooses to retire and/or becomes eligible for an Early or Normal Retirement Benefit as a result of the occurrence of an event described in Section 3.2, 4.2 or 5.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.5 <u>Consulting</u>**. In the event of the Executive's separation from service with the Company for any reason other than death, Total Disability or Cause, effective as of his separation from service, the Company shall engage the Executive, and the Executive shall serve the Company, as a consultant on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.5. During the Term (as defined below), the Consultant shall devote his best efforts, attention, skills and energies, as necessary, to provide the Company with the Consulting Services (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) such other services as may be mutually agreed upon by the Executive and the Chair of the Board or the CEO of the Parent from time to time. The Executive shall not be required to devote (i) more than ten (10) hours during any calendar quarter or (ii) any minimum number of hours to perform Consulting Services. For up to sixteen (16) weeks each year, the Executive, in his discretion, may be unavailable to provide Consulting Services. The Executive may perform Consulting Services by telephone or any other means of electronic communication. During the Term, the Executive may pursue other civic, private and business interests, provided that his pursuit of such interests does not violate any of his covenants in this Agreement.

The Executive shall be entitled to receive such payments whether or not he is requested to provide Consulting Services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Relationship</u>. In providing any Consulting Services, the Executive shall be acting as an independent contractor and not as an employee, agent or representative of the Company. During the Term, the Executive shall disclose that he is an independent contractor of the Company and shall not represent to any third party that he is an employee, agent or representative of the Company. As an independent contractor, the Executive shall have no authority, express or implied, to commit or obligate the Company in any manner whatsoever, and nothing contained herein shall be construed or interpreted to create an employment, agency, partnership or joint venture relationship between the Executive and the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Benefit Plans</u>.

Such sum shall be paid over a period of ten (10) years beginning with the fifteenth (15<sup>th</sup>) day of the first calendar month following the date of the Executive's death and on the next following nine (9) anniversaries of the first payment.

If the Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to him hereunder had he continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to the Executive's Beneficiary. If the Executive has not named a Beneficiary, then such amounts shall be paid to the Executive's devisee, legatee, or other designee, or if there is no such designee, to the Executive's estate.

**ARTICLE 10. MISCELLANEOUS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.1 <u>Employment Status</u>**. The Executive and the Company acknowledge that, except as provided in this or any other agreement between the Executive and the Company, the employment of the Executive by the Company is "at will", and, may be terminated by either the Executive or the Company at any time, subject to applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.2 <u>Beneficiaries</u>**. The Executive may designate one or more persons or entities as the primary and/or contingent Beneficiaries of any Death Benefits or Retirement Benefits owing to the Executive under this Agreement. Such designation must be signed by the Executive, and in a form acceptable to the Board. The Executive may make or change such designation at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.3 <u>Entire Agreement</u>**. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parent, FBB, and the Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.4 <u>Gender and Number</u>**. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.5 <u>Severability</u>**. In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Agreement, and the Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included. Further, the captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.6 <u>Modification</u>**. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged unless such modification, waiver, or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and by an authorized member of the Board, or by the respective parties' legal representatives and successors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.7 <u>Applicable Law</u>**. To the extent not preempted by the laws of the United States, the laws of the State of Wisconsin shall be the controlling law in all matters relating to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.8 <u>Employment</u>**. This Company's obligations under this Agreement are premised upon and conditioned upon the Executive being employed in a senior executive position with the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.9 <u>One Benefit Payable</u>**. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, only one (1) benefit will be payable under this Agreement to the Executive or, in the event of his death, the Beneficiary (or, if none, the Executive's estate). There may be a benefit on separation for service without cause under Section 5.2; there may be a benefit on a Change in Control under ARTICLE 6; there may be a Normal Retirement Benefit or an Early Retirement Benefit under ARTICLE 2; or there may be a Death Benefit under Section 3.1; but there will never be more than one (1) benefit payable under this Agreement. If, as of the date of the Executive's separation from service with the Company, the Executive is eligible to receive more than one (1) benefit under this Agreement, the Executive shall be provided the benefit with the greatest net present value (calculated using the annual long-term applicable federal rate then in effect) as of such separation from service, payable in accordance with the applicable payment provisions of this Agreement and Code Section 409A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.10** **<u>Attorneys' Fees</u>**. If after a Change in Control, and as a result of a position taken by the Company or its successors after a Change in Control, the Executive takes nonfrivolous legal actions against the Company or its successors to defend his rights under this Agreement, the Company or its successors will reimburse the Executive for reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred in such legal actions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.11** **<u>Code Section 409A</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) To the extent any provision of this Agreement or action by the Company would subject the Executive to liability for interest or additional taxes under Code Section 409A, such provision shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Company and beneficial to the Executive. It is intended that this Agreement will comply with Code Section 409A, and this Agreement shall be administered accordingly and interpreted and construed on a basis consistent with such intent. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no termination or similar payments or benefits shall be payable hereunder on account of an employment termination unless such termination constitutes a "separation from service" within the meaning of Code Section 409A. For purposes of Code Section 409A, all installment payments of deferred compensation made hereunder, or pursuant to another plan or arrangement, shall be deemed to be separate payments. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefit payments under this Agreement are subject to Code Section 409A, such reimbursements and in-kind benefit payments shall be made in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any amount or benefit under this Agreement constitutes deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and the settlement or distribution of such amount or benefit is to be triggered by a Change in Control, then such settlement or distribution shall be subject to the event constituting the Change in Control also constituting a "change in control event" under Code Section 409A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is determined to be a Specified Employee as of the date of his separation from service, then, to the extent required pursuant to Code Section 409A, payments due under this Agreement that are deemed to be deferred compensation shall be subject to a six (6)-month delay following the date of separation from service; and all delayed payments shall be accumulated and paid in a lump-sum payment as of the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the date of separation from service (or, if earlier, as of the Executive's death). Any portion of the benefits hereunder that were not otherwise due to be paid during the six (6)-month period following the date of the Executive's separation from service shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with the payment schedule established herein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parent and FBB have caused this Second Amended and Restated Agreement to be executed in its name and on its behalf, and the Executive acknowledges understanding and acceptance of, and agrees to, the terms of this Second Amended and Restated Agreement, all as of the Effective Date.
