and obligations under each and every one of the Loan Documents and any other Loan Document to which it is a party

 

4.11.         Lender
Expenses. Whether or not any Loan is made, Borrower will (a) pay all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lender incident
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including, without limitation, all costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents, or in connection with any modification, amendment, alteration,
or the enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subordinated Debenture or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation,
the Lender’s out-of-pocket expenses and the charges and disbursements to counsel retained by the Lender, and (b) pay and
save the Lender and all other holders of the Notes and Subordinated Debenture harmless against any and all liability with respect
to amounts payable as a result of (i) any taxes which may be determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subordinated Debenture or the other Loan Documents or any modification, amendment or alteration
of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subordinated Debenture or the other Loan Documents, (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 the Lender. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 4.11 shall survive the repayment in full of the Notes and the
Subordinated Debenture. Any of the foregoing amounts incurred by the Lender and not paid by the Borrower upon demand shall bear
interest from the date incurred at the rate of interest in effect or announced by Lender from time to time as its Base Rate plus
6% per annum and shall be deemed part of the Borrower’s Liabilities hereunder.

4.12.         Subordinated
Debt. If the Subordinated Debt ceases to be deemed to be Tier 2 Capital other than due to the limitation imposed by the
second sentence of 12 C.F.R. §250.166(e), which limits the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five years immediately
preceding the maturity date of the subordinated debt, Borrower shall: (a) immediately notify Lender; and (b) immediately upon request
of Lender execute and deliver all such agreements (including, without limitation, pledge agreements and replacement notes) as Lender
may reasonably request in order to restructure the obligations evidenced by the Subordinated Debt as a senior secured obligation
of Borrower.

 

5.          NEGATIVE
COVENANTS.

 

Borrower covenants
and agrees that:

and other than borrowings in the ordinary course of business of the Bank Subsidiaries (including borrowings from the Federal Home
Loan Bank system) and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and safe and sound banking practices. For purposes of
this Agreement, the phrase "indebtedness" shall mean and include: (i) all items arising from the borrowing of money,

indebtedness secured by any Lien on property owned by Borrower or any Bank Subsidiary whether or not such indebtedness shall have
been assumed; (iii) all guarantees and similar contingent liabilities in respect to indebtedness of others; and (iv) all other
interest-bearing obligations evidencing indebtedness to others for borrowed money.

 

5.2.          Liens.
Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any Bank Subsidiary to create, assume, incur, suffer or permit to exist (other than (i)
to secure borrowings in the ordinary course of business of the Bank Subsidiaries (including borrowings from the Federal Home Loan
Bank system) and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and safe and sound banking practices, and (ii) tax liens with
respect to real estate taxes not yet due and payable), any Lien of any kind or character upon or with respect to any of its assets
or properties, whether owned at the date hereof or hereafter acquired, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income.

 

5.3.          Disposal
of Interests in Bank Subsidiaries. Borrower shall not dispose of any stock or other interest in the equity of any of its
Bank Subsidiaries, by sale, assignment, lease or otherwise, now owned or hereafter acquired, without the prior written consent
of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

5.4.          Mergers
or Consolidations. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of the Bank Subsidiaries to, purchase substantially all
of the assets of, or merge into or consolidate with or into, any other person, entity or corporation, without the prior written
consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required
unless the purchase, merger or consolidation would be considered to involve a significant business combination as determined for
purposes of the pro forma financial information filing requirements of Article 11 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law or statute of the federal government or any state

proceedings and within 30 days after the entry thereof such order is not vacated or stayed on appeal or otherwise, or shall not
otherwise have ceased to continue in effect; or

 

6.1.13.         Borrower

6.1.17.         A
Change of Control shall occur or Borrower shall cease to own and control all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of any
Bank Subsidiary (as used herein, the term "Change of Control" shall mean at any time that (a) any individual or entity,
either individually or as part of a "person" (as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) shall own, beneficially or of record, 20% or more of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Borrower for purposes of this definition, "beneficial ownership" shall have the meaning set forth in
Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act);

 

6.2.          Lender’s
Remedies. Subject to Section 6.7, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, if
such Event of Default shall then be continuing, in addition to all the remedies conferred upon Lender by law or equity or the
terms of any Loan Document, to do any or all of the following, concurrently or successively, without notice to Borrower:

 

6.2.1.          Declare
the Notes to be, and they shall thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of
any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in any Note to the contrary notwithstanding; or

 

6.2.2.          Terminate
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to extend credit of any kind or to make any disbursement, whereupon the commitment
and obligation of Lender to extend credit or to make disbursements hereunder shall terminate; or

 

6.2.3.          Exercise
all of its rights and remedies at law, in equity or pursuant to any or all Collateral Documents, including foreclosing on the Collateral.

 

Borrower shall pay to Lender, upon demand,
all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) of obtaining such judgment or decree or of otherwise
seeking to enforce its rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or other related documents; and all such
expenses, as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, shall, until paid, be secured by the Loan Documents and
shall bear interest at the Default Rate described in the Notes.

 

6.3.          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 expended by Lender in so doing, as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall (a) be deemed advanced by Lender under an obligation to do so regardless of the identity of the person or persons
to whom such funds are furnished, (b) constitute additional advances hereunder, the payment of which is additional indebtedness
evidenced by the Note, and (c) become due and owing, at Lender’s demand, with interest accruing from the date of disbursement
thereof until fully paid at the Default Rate.

 

6.4.          Other
Remedies.     If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender may, in addition
to any other rights and remedies hereunder, exercise any and all remedies provided in any of the other Loan Documents and other
related documents.

 

6.5.          No
Lender Liability.     To the extent permitted by law, Lender shall have 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.

6.6.          Lender’s
Fees and Expenses.     In case of any Event of Default hereunder, Borrower shall pay Lender’s
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.

 

6.7.          Limitation
on Remedies with Respect to Subordinated Debt. If an Event of Default under Sections 6.1.13 or 6.1.14 shall occur,
Lender may declare the Subordinated Debenture and any other amounts due Lender hereunder immediately due and payable, whereupon
the Subordinated Debenture and such other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or notice of any kind. If Borrower receives a written notification from the FRB that the Subordinated Debenture
no longer constitutes Tier 2 Capital of Borrower (the “Federal Reserve Notice”), other than due to the limitation imposed
by the second sentence of 12 C.F.R. §250.166(e), which limits the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five years
immediately preceding the maturity date of the subordinated debt, and if thereafter any Event of Default shall occur under Section
6.1, Lender may declare the Subordinated Debenture and any other amounts due Lender hereunder immediately due and payable,
whereupon the Subordinated Debenture and such other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, it is specifically understood and
agreed that, notwithstanding the curing of such Event of Default, Borrower shall not be released from any of its covenants hereunder
unless and until the Subordinated Debenture is paid in full. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default without notice by Lender
to or demand by Lender of Borrower, Lender shall have no further obligation to and may then forthwith cease advancing monies or
extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The parties agree that until
the earlier of the Subordinated Debt Maturity Date or the delivery of a Federal Reserve Notice, Lender may only enforce Borrower’s
obligations under the Subordinated Debt (a) if Borrower fails to pay interest when due on the Subordinated Debenture, in which
case Lender may pursue Borrower for such interest, (b) if Borrower fails to comply with any of the affirmative covenants set forth
in Section 4 (other than the affirmative financial covenants in Section 4.2), in which case Lender may pursue Borrower
to ensure that Borrower complies with such covenants, or (c) if an Event of Default occurs under Sections 6.1.13 or 6.1.14,
in which case the first sentence of this Section 6.7 shall govern.

7.          MISCELLANEOUS.

 

7.1.          Release;
Indemnification.     Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all causes of action, claims
or rights which the 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 and
gross negligence. 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 any 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.

 

7.2.          Assignment
and Participation.     Lender may pledge or otherwise hypothecate all or any portion of this
Agreement or grant participations herein, or in any of its rights and security hereunder, including, without limitation, the Note.
Lender may also assign all or any part of any Loan and Lender’s obligations in connection therewith to one or more commercial
banks or other financial institutions or investors (each an “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,
and (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. 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 Note 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. 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 7.3, 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.

 

7.3.          Prohibition
on Assignment.     Borrower shall not assign or attempt to assign its rights under this Agreement,
either voluntarily or by operation of law.

 

7.4.          Time
of the Essence.     Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

 

7.5.          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. 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.

 

7.6.          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.

7.7.          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 the Lender received any payment on account of the Borrower’s Liabilities and any such payment(s)
or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, subordinated
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, the 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) or proceeds had not been
received by Lender and applied on account of the Borrower’s Liabilities; provided, however, if Lender successfully contests
an such invalidation, declaration, set aside, subordination or other order to pay any such payment or proceeds to any third party,
the revived Borrower’s Liabilities shall be deemed satisfied.

 

7.8.          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:

	$10,000,000	Chicago, Illinois

December 29, 2006

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
the undersigned, GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC., an Indiana corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the
order of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association, or the holder hereof from time to time (“Lender”),
at such place as may be designated in writing by Lender, the principal sum of TEN MILLION AND 00/100THS DOLLARS ($10,000,000),
with interest thereon as hereinafter provided. This note (this “Note”) is issued pursuant to the terms of a
Second Amended and Restated Loan and Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement of even date herewith by and between Borrower and
Lender (said Second Amended and Restated Loan and Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement together with the Agreed Upon Terms
and Procedures, as each may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, is referred to hereinafter as 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 first day of each January, April, July and October as set forth in the Loan Agreement,
commencing April 1, 2007. All sums owing hereunder are payable in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately
available funds.

 

The outstanding principal
balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Dates.
Additional principal payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement. Until January 1, 2014, the
Borrower may not reduce the outstanding balance of the Term Loan below $500,000 if there is any outstanding principal owing under
the Subordinated Debenture.

 

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 Collateral Documents.
In case an Event of Default (as defined under any of the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Documents, or other Loan Document) shall
occur and be continuing (any of the foregoing being a “Event of Default” hereunder), 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.

	Subordinated Debenture  Purchase
    Agreement
	German American Bancorp, Inc./ JP Morgan
    Chase Bank, N.A.

 

    	1

    	 

    

 

Provided that no Event
of Default then exists, this Note may be prepaid only upon those terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement.

 

From and after the Term
Loan 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 3% 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.

 

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 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 in-house
or staff 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.

 

BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF BORROWER OR LENDER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS NOTE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED
OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS DISCUSSED THIS WAIVER WITH SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL. BORROWER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) IT
HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE MEANING AND RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (ii) THIS WAIVER HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY BORROWER AND BORROWER’S
COUNSEL AND IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND (iii) THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS TO
EACH OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AS IF FULLY INCORPORATED THEREIN.

 

This Note represents a
continuation of the indebtedness represented by that certain Term Note, dated September 20, 2005, made by Borrower to Lender in
the original principal amount of $25,000,000, as such note has been amended prior to the date hereof (the “Original Note”).
The Original Note is amended, restated and replaced by this Note. This Note does not constitute a novation, discharge or satisfaction
of the Original Note replaced hereby or of the indebtedness evidenced by said Original Note.

so much thereof that has been advanced and remains outstanding) with interest thereon as hereinafter provided. This Subordinated
Debenture (this “Subordinated Debenture”) is issued pursuant to the terms of that certain Second Amended and Restated
Loan and Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement of even date herewith by and between Borrower and Lender (such Second Amended
and Restated Loan and Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement together with the Agreed Upon Terms and Procedures, as each may
be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, is referred to hereinafter as the “Loan Agreement”).
All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

All accrued interest and
unpaid principal due and payable under this Subordinated Debenture shall be paid in full on or before the Subordinated Debenture
Maturity Date.

 

The unpaid principal amount
outstanding under this Subordinated Debenture from time to time shall bear interest before maturity in accordance with the Agreement,
computed on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for actual days elapsed. Under certain circumstances as provided in the Agreement,
overdue interest payments under this Subordinated Debenture shall bear interest from the due date thereof until paid at a daily
rate equal to the Default Rate of Interest, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for actual days elapsed, except
as otherwise provided in the Agreement.

 

All accrued interest shall
be payable at Lender’s principal place of business on a quarterly basis in arrears on the first day of each January, April,
July and October, commencing April 1, 2007. The outstanding unpaid principal balance of this Subordinated Debenture shall be payable
in one installment on the Subordinated Debenture Maturity Date. Whenever any payment to be made under this Subordinated Debenture
shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension
of time shall be included in the computation of interest due upon this Subordinated Debenture. There shall be no penalties or other
charges payable by Borrower to Lender hereunder other than those payments described in this Subordinated Debenture or in the Loan
Agreement. Borrower may prepay all or, from time to time, part of the outstanding unpaid principal balance under this Subordinated
Debenture at any time without penalty.

This Subordinated Debenture
is not secured by any assets of Borrower.

 

So long as any portion
of the unpaid principal of this Subordinated Debenture is deemed to be Tier 2 Capital of Borrower in accordance with the rules
and regulations of the FRB applicable to the capital status of the subordinated debt of bank holding companies, the rights of Lender
to the principal sum hereunder or any part hereof and to any accrued interest thereon shall remain subject and subordinate to the
claims of general creditors of Borrower (which shall expressly exclude all indebtedness incurred in connection with, or relating
to, any trust preferred securities caused to be issued by, or reflected in the consolidated financial statements of, Borrower,
but shall expressly include all senior indebtedness of the Borrower for borrowed money, similar obligations arising from off-balance
sheet guarantees and direct credit substitutes, and obligations associated with derivative products such as interest rate and foreign
exchange contracts, commodity contracts, and similar arrangements) and, upon dissolution or liquidation of Borrower, no payment
of principal, interest or premium (including post-default interest) shall be due and payable under the terms of this Subordinated
Debenture until all general creditors of Borrower (which shall expressly exclude all indebtedness incurred in connection with,
or relating to, any trust preferred securities caused to be issued by, or reflected in the consolidated financial statements of,
Borrower, but shall expressly include all senior indebtedness of the Borrower for borrowed money, similar obligations arising from
off-balance sheet guarantees and direct credit substitutes, and obligations associated with derivative products such as interest
rate and foreign exchange contracts, commodity contracts, and similar arrangements) shall have been paid in full. If this Subordinated
Debenture ceases to be deemed to be Tier 2 Capital of Borrower in accordance with the rules and regulations of the FRB applicable
to the capital status of the subordinated debt of bank holding companies, other than due to the limitations imposed by the second
sentence of 12 C.F.R §250.166(e), which limits the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five years immediately
preceding the maturity date of the subordinated debt, Borrower shall: immediately notify Lender; and immediately upon request of
Lender execute and deliver all such agreements (including without limitation pledge agreements and replacement notes) as Lender
may request in order to restructure the obligation evidenced hereby as a senior secured obligation of Borrower. If Borrower fails
to execute such agreements as required by Lender within 30 days of Lender’s request, such failure shall be deemed to be an
Event of Default as provided in Section 6.1 of the Loan Agreement.

 

If an Event of Default
or “Default” as defined under, or a default or breach in any respect by Borrower of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement under, any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any Collateral Document) occurs, Lender shall have
the rights set forth in Section 6.7 of the Loan Agreement.

 

If any attorney is engaged
by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of this Subordinated Debenture 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 in acting with respect to the terms of this Subordinated Debenture or any of the other Loan Documents
shall constitute a waiver of any breach, default or failure of condition under this Subordinated Debenture, the Loan Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents or the obligations secured thereby. A waiver of any term of this Subordinated Debenture 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 Subordinated Debenture and the terms
of any other document related to the Loan evidenced by this Subordinated Debenture, the terms of this Subordinated Debenture 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 Subordinated Debenture. In addition, Borrower expressly
agrees that this Subordinated Debenture 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 Subordinated Debenture 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 Subordinated Debenture 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 in-house or staff attorneys and the reasonable fees and expenses of any other
experts or consultants.

 

All agreements between
Borrower and Lender (including, without limitation, this Subordinated Debenture 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 Subordinated Debenture (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.

Lender may sell, assign,

to time. In the event of a transfer, all terms and conditions of this Subordinated Debenture shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the transferee after such transfer.

 

Upon receipt of notice
from Lender advising Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Subordinated Debenture, Borrower shall, execute
and deliver in lieu thereof a new debenture in principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such lost, stolen, destroyed
or mutilated debenture, dated the date to which interest has been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Subordinated
Debenture.

 

Unless otherwise provided
in the Loan Agreement, all payments on account of the indebtedness evidenced by this Subordinated Debenture 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.

 

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.

 

BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS Subordinated Debenture OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER
STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF BORROWER OR LENDER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS SUBORDINATED
DEBENTURE AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS DISCUSSED
THIS WAIVER WITH SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL. BORROWER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) IT HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE MEANING AND RAMIFICATIONS
OF THIS WAIVER, (ii) THIS WAIVER HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY BORROWER AND BORROWER’S COUNSEL AND IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER
TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND (iii) THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS TO EACH OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AS IF FULLY INCORPORATED
THEREIN.

2.          Pledge
and Grant of Security Interests. Pledgor hereby pledges, collaterally assigns,

duly executed in blank, and hereby grants to and creates in favor of Lender liens and security interests in the Pledged Stock
as collateral security for (a) the due and punctual payment when due (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in full
of all amounts due under the Senior Loans (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, modified, extended or replaced
from time to time) in the aggregate face amount as of the date hereof of $25,000,000 executed and delivered by Pledgor to Lender
pursuant to the Loan Agreement; (b) the due and punctual performance and observance by Pledgor of all other Borrower’s Liabilities;

proceeding to enforce the satisfaction of the obligations, or any of them, or to preserve and protect their rights under the Loan
Agreement, the Senior Notes, this Pledge Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument relating to the transactions
contemplated in the Loan Agreement, the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling or otherwise disposing
of or realizing on the Pledged Stock, or of any exercise by the Lender of its rights, together with reasonable attorneys’
fees, expenses and court costs; (g) any indebtedness, obligation or liability of the Pledgor to the Lender, whether direct or
indirect, joint or several, absolute or contingent, now or hereafter existing, however created or arising and however evidenced;
(h) any indebtedness, obligation or liability of the Pledgor under or in connection with any Interest Rate Protection Agreement;
and (i) all costs incurred by Lender to obtain, perfect, preserve and enforce the liens and security interests granted by this
Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to collect the Obligations Secured Hereby (as hereinafter defined)
and to maintain and preserve the Pledged Stock, with such costs including, without limitation, expenditures made by Lender for
attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses and expenses of collection, possession and sale of the Pledged Stock, together
with interest on all such costs at the Default Rate (the foregoing subsections (a) through (i) are collectively referred to herein
as the “Obligations Secured Hereby”). Notwithstanding anything above in this Section 2 to the contrary, the Pledged
Stock shall not be collateral security for amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Debenture that are deemed to be Tier 2 Capital
of Pledgor in accordance with the rules and regulations of the FRB applicable to the capital status of the subordinated debt of
bank holding companies, without giving effect to the limitation imposed by the second sentence of 12 C.F.R. §250.166(e),
which limits the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five years immediately preceding the maturity date of the subordinated
debt.

6.4.          At
any time from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Pledgor, Pledgor covenants and agrees
that it will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as Lender
may reasonably request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Pledge Agreement and of the rights
and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of UCC-1 financing statements in favor of Lender with respect

7.          RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.

 

7.1.          If
any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or a default or breach in any respect by Pledgor of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement of Pledgor under this Pledge Agreement (after the expiration of any applicable cure period or grace period
hereunder or thereunder, which breach shall be deemed an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and an Event of Default hereunder)
shall occur, Lender may do any one or more of the following: (a) declare the Obligations Secured Hereby to be forthwith due and
payable, whereupon such Obligations Secured Hereby shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest
or other notice of any kind; and/or (b) proceed to protect and enforce its rights under this Pledge Agreement, the Notes, the Loan
Agreement, or any of the other Loan Document through other appropriate proceedings, and Lender shall have, without limitation,

7.2.          Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Event of Default hereunder or under the Loan Agreement shall occur, Lender shall
have the right to sell the Pledged Stock, or any part thereof, at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any
securities exchange for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as Lender may deem best, and Lender
may be the purchaser of any or all of the Pledged Stock so sold and thereafter Lender or any other purchaser shall hold the same
free from any right or claim of whatsoever kind. Lender is authorized, at any such sale, if it deems it advisable so to do, to
restrict the number of prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their
own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale of the Pledged Stock and may otherwise require that
such sale be conducted subject to restrictions as to such other matters as Lender may deem necessary in order that such sale may
be effected in such manner as to comply with all applicable state and federal securities laws. Upon any such sale, Lender shall
have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Pledged Stock so sold.

 

7.3.          Each
purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold, absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including
any equity or right of redemption of Pledgor, who hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which
it has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. Lender shall give Pledgor not less than
ten (10) days’ written notice of its intention to make any such public or private sale or at any broker’s board or
on any securities exchange (with such notice to state the time and place of such sale), and Pledgor agrees that such notice shall
be deemed reasonable.

 

7.4.          Any
such public sale shall be held at such time or times within the ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Lender may
fix in the notice of such sale. At any sale, the Pledged Stock may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in parts, as Lender may
determine. Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any such notice. Lender may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of
all or any part of the Pledged Stock on credit or for future delivery, the Pledged Stock so sold may be retained by Lender until
the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but Lender shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser
to take up and pay for the Pledged Stock so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Pledged Stock may again be sold upon like
notice.

 

7.5.          Lender,
instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose
this Pledge Agreement and sell the Pledged Stock, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction.

 

7.6.          On
any sale of the Pledged Stock, Lender is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such
sale that it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any
required approval of the purchaser or purchasers by any third party or any governmental regulatory authority or officer or court,
including, without limitation, all limitations and restrictions imposed by federal and state banking laws and regulations. Compliance
with the foregoing sentence shall result in such sale or disposition being considered or deemed to have been made in a commercially
reasonable manner.

 

7.7.          In
furtherance of the exercise by Lender of the rights and remedies granted to it hereunder, Pledgor agrees that, upon request of
Lender and at the expense of Pledgor, it will use its best efforts to obtain all third party and governmental approvals necessary
for or incidental to the exercise of remedies by Lender with respect to the Pledged Stock or any part thereof, including, without
limitation, approvals from the FRB and any state bank regulatory authority.

8.          REGISTRATION
RIGHTS; PRIVATE SALES.

 

8.1.          If
Lender shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and if
in the opinion of Lender it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered
under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Pledgor will cause
the issuer of the Pledged Stock to (a) execute and deliver, and cause to be done all such other acts, as may be, in the opinion
of Lender, necessary or advisable to register the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the
Securities Act, (b) use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain
effective for a period of one (1) year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof
to be sold, and (c) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of Lender, are necessary
or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Pledgor agrees to cause such issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or
“Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions which Lender shall designate and to make available to its security holders,
as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of
the Securities Act.

 

8.2.          Pledgor
hereby acknowledges that, notwithstanding that a higher price might be obtained for the Pledged Stock at a public sale than at
a private sale or sales, the making of a public sale of the Pledged Stock may be subject to registration requirements and other
legal restrictions compliance with which could require such actions on the part of Pledgor, could entail such expenses and could
subject Lender and any underwriter through whom the Pledged Stock may be sold and any controlling Person of any thereof to such
liabilities, as would make the making of a public sale of the Pledged Stock impractical. Accordingly, Pledgor hereby agrees that
private sales made by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 hereof may be at prices and on other terms less
favorable to the seller than if the Pledged Stock were sold at public sale, that Lender shall not have any obligation to take any
steps in order to permit the Pledged Stock to be sold at a public sale complying with the requirements of federal and state securities
and similar laws, and that such sale shall not be deemed to be made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely because of its
nature as a private sale.

 

8.3.          Pledgor
further agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make any sale or sales
of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 7 and this Section 8 valid and binding and in compliance
with any and all other applicable requirements of law. Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in
Section 7 and this Section 8 will cause irreparable injury to Lender, that Lender has no adequate remedy at law in respect
of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in Section 7 of this Section 8 shall
be specifically enforceable against Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses to the granting of
equitable relief (such as, without limitation, any defense that Lender has an adequate remedy at law or that Lender will not be
irreparably injured) in any action for specific performance of such covenants.

9.          Limitation
on Duties Regarding Pledged Stock. Lender’s sole duty with respect to the
custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Pledged Stock in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise,
shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with similar securities and property for its own account. Neither
Lender nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for any good faith failure to demand, collect or
realize upon any of the Pledged Stock or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to see or otherwise dispose
of any Pledged Stock or for any good faith delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to see or otherwise dispose of any
Pledged Stock upon the request of the Pledgor or otherwise.

 

10.         Powers
Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with
respect to the Pledged Stock are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

 

11.         Indemnification.
Pledgor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender (to the full extent permitted by law) from
and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments, liabilities for penalties and excise taxes and other damages of whatever
nature, and to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements, growing out of or
resulting from the Pledged Stock, this Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the administration and
enforcement of this Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or exercise of any right or remedy granted
to Lender hereunder except with respect to such claims, demands, losses, judgments, liabilities for penalties and excise taxes
and other damages of whatever nature. arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender, but including without
limitation, any tax liability incurred by Lender or any of its affiliates as a result of the exercise by Lender of any of its rights
hereunder. In no event shall Lender be liable to Pledgor for any action taken by Lender that is permitted under this Pledge Agreement
other than to account for proceeds of the Pledged Stock actually received by Lender.

 

12.         Distribution
of Pledged Stock. Upon enforcement of this Pledge Agreement following the occurrence
of an Event of Default under this Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement, or the Notes, the proceeds of the Pledged Stock shall
be applied to the Obligations Secured Hereby in such order and manner as Lender may determine. In the event such monies shall
be insufficient to pay all of the Obligations Secured Hereby, Pledgor shall be liable to Lender for any deficiency therein.

 

13.         No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Lender shall not by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed
by Lender, and then such waiver shall be valid to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Lender of any right or remedy hereunder
on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion.
No failure to exercise or any delay in exercising on the part of Lender 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 hereunder preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

related to this Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be litigated only in courts having suits within Chicago, Illinois.

Authorization and Instruction to Issuers. Pledgor hereby authorizes and instructs
each issuer of Pledged Stock to comply with any instruction received by it from Lender in writing that (a) states that an Event
of Default has occurred and (b) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Pledge Agreement, without any other or further
instructions from Pledgor, and Pledgor agrees that the issuer shall be fully protected in so complying.

THESE AGREED UPON TERMS
AND PROCEDURES (these “Terms and Procedures”) are dated as of December 29, 2006 and are agreed to and acknowledged
by German American Bancorp, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“Borrower”), in connection with certain credit facilities
from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association (“Lender”).

 

Agreement

 

THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual covenants, conditions and agreements and to induce Lender to enter into the Second Amended and Restated Loan and
Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement and to make Loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower, the parties hereby
agree as follows:

 

1.           DEFINITIONS.
All capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in that certain
Second Amended Loan and Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement of even date herewith between Lender and Borrower, as amended,
restated, supplemented or modified from time to time (the “Loan Agreement”).

 

2.           Interest
Rates. Borrower agrees that matters concerning the election, payment, application, accrual and computation of interest
and interest rates shall be in accordance with Lender’s practices set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.

 

2.1.          Interest
Rate Election. Each Borrowing Tranche under any Loan shall bear interest as a Base Rate Tranche unless and until Borrower
shall otherwise elect. Borrower shall make a LIBO Rate or Base Rate election by delivering a Rate Election Notice (a) not less
than one Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Tranche, (b) not less than three Business Days prior
to the Borrowing Date, in the case of a LIBO Rate Tranche, and (c) in no event more than five Business Days prior to a Borrowing
Date, provided that no more than one LIBO Rate Tranche for any Loan shall be outstanding at any one time. Each Rate Election Notice
shall specify the LIBOR Period to be applicable to any LIBO Rate Tranche with respect to any Loan. The LIBO Rate shall remain fixed
for all disbursements made under a Loan that bear interest based on the LIBO Rate until the next LIBOR Period commences. Any Rate
Election Notice delivered by Borrower shall be irrevocable and may not be modified in any way without the prior, written approval
of Lender. In addition to initially electing to designate a Borrowing Tranche as a Base Rate Tranche or a LIBO Rate Tranche, Borrower
may further elect, by designation on a Rate Election Notice, (i) to convert a Base Rate Tranche or any portion thereof to a LIBO
Rate Tranche, (ii) to convert a LIBO Rate Tranche or any portion thereof into a Base Rate Tranche, or (iii) to continue any LIBO
Rate Tranche or any portion thereof for an additional LIBOR Period. In the event that Borrower fails to notify Lender that it desires
to continue any LIBO Rate Tranche or any portion thereof by the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period, Borrower shall be deemed
to have elected to continue the LIBO Rate Tranche in question for an additional LIBOR Period equal in length to the expiring LIBOR
Period. The LIBOR Period for the continuation of any LIBO Rate Tranche shall commence on the day after the last day of the next
preceding LIBOR Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and subject to the default interest provisions
contained herein, if an Event of Default occurs, all LIBO Rate Tranches will convert to Base Rate Tranches upon the expiration
of the LIBOR Periods therefor. The conversion of a LIBO Rate Tranche to a Base Rate Tranche pursuant to a description in
a Rate Election Notice shall only occur on the last Business Day of the LIBOR Period relating to such LIBO Rate Tranche. Lender
is hereby authorized to rely upon a Rate Election Notice delivered by any authorized officer of Borrower and such additional authorized
agents as any of the above-referenced authorized agents of Borrower shall designate, in writing, to Lender.

2.2.          Interest
Payments. Subject to Section 2.3 hereof, interest accrued on each Borrowing Tranche or any other outstanding
amount of the Loans shall be payable by Borrower in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October, commencing
April 1, 2007, and on the applicable Maturity Date of each Loan.

 

2.3.          Default
Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest and the payment dates specified in this Section 2, effective
immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the principal balance of any Loan then outstanding
and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments not paid within ten days after the same becomes due shall
bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 3% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable under these
Terms and Procedures (the “Default Rate”). In addition, all other amounts due Lender (whether directly or for
reimbursement) under these Terms and Procedures or any of the other Loan Documents, if not paid when due or, in the event no time
period is expressed, if not paid within five 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.3 or
elsewhere in these Terms and Procedures, the Default Rate of interest shall apply with respect to an Event of Default relating
to the Subordinated Debt if such Event of Default occurs pursuant to Sections 8.1.1.16 or 8.1.1.17 of the Loan Agreement
or such Event of Default is one with respect to which Lender would be entitled to declare the Subordinated Debenture immediately
due and payable pursuant to Section 8.6 of the Loan Agreement.

 

2.4.          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 Loans.
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 any of the Notes, 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).

2.5.          Certain
Provisions Regarding LIBO Rate Tranches.

 

  2.5.1.          Changes;
Legal Restrictions. In the event the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or the interpretation
or application thereof by a governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply
therewith would be unlawful) either (a) subjects Lender to any tax (other than income taxes or franchise taxes not specifically
based on Loan transactions), duty or other charge of any kind with respect to any LIBO Rate Tranche or changes the basis of taxation
of payments to Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable in connection with a LIBO Rate Tranche, or (b) imposes
on Lender any other condition materially more burdensome in nature, extent or consequence than those in existence as of the date
of this Agreement, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining
any LIBO Rate Tranches or to reduce any amount receivable thereunder; then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender,
as applicable, upon demand, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate Lender for any such additional cost incurred
or reduced amounts received.

 

  2.5.2.          LIBO
Rate Lending Unlawful. If Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to Borrower, be conclusive
and binding in the absence of readily demonstrable error) that the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, rule, regulation,
guideline or in the interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority makes it unlawful for Lender to make or
maintain any LIBO Rate Tranche, (a) the obligation of Lender to make or continue any LIBO Rate Tranche shall, upon such determination,
forthwith be suspended until Lender shall notify Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (b)
if required by such law, interpretation or application, all LIBO Rate Tranches shall automatically convert into Base Rate Tranches.

 

  2.5.3.          Unascertainable
Interest Rate. If Lender shall have determined in good faith that adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest
rate applicable hereunder to LIBO Rate Tranches, then, upon notice from Lender to Borrower, the obligations of Lender to make or
continue LIBO Rate Tranches shall forthwith be suspended, and thereafter the Loan shall continue at the applicable Base Rate until
Lender shall notify Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. Lender will give such notice when
it determines, in good faith, that such circumstances no longer exist; provided, however, that Lender shall not have any liability
with respect to any delay in giving such notice.

 

  2.5.4.          Funding
Losses. In the event Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred
by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by Lender to make or maintain any LIBO Rate Tranche)
as a result of any continuance, conversion, repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of, or failure to make or termination
of, any LIBO Rate Tranche on a date other than the scheduled last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, then, upon the written
notice of such from Lender to Borrower, Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense within three Business Days
after receipt of such notice. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall be conclusive and
binding in the absence of readily demonstrable error.

2.6.          Additional
Interest on LIBO Rate Tranches. So long as and to the extent Lender shall be required under regulations of the FRB to maintain
reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities (as defined in the definition
of Reserve Percentage), and Lender’s performance under this Agreement shall have given rise to additional reserve requirements
for Lender thereunder, Borrower shall pay to Lender additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Tranche.
Such additional interest shall accrue from the later of the date such reserve requirement commences and the date of the first disbursement
under such LIBO Rate Tranche until the earlier of the date such reserve requirement ends and the date the principal amount of such
LIBO Rate Tranche is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a)
the LIBO Rate for the LIBOR Period for such LIBO Rate Tranche from (b) the rate obtained by dividing the LIBO Rate by a percentage
equal to 100% minus the Reserve Percentage as in effect from time to time during such LIBOR Period. Lender shall, as soon as practicable
but not later than the last day of the LIBOR Period, provide notice to Borrower of any such additional interest arising in connection
with such LIBO Rate Tranche and the certification of Lender that the additional amount is due and that the additional reserve requirement
is applicable to such LIBO Rate Tranche. Such additional interest shall be payable directly to Lender on the dates specified herein
for payment of interest.

 

2.7.          Notice
of Changes or Increased Costs Relating to LIBO Rate Tranches. Lender agrees that, as promptly as reasonably practicable
after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition which would cause it to be affected by any
of the events or conditions described in Sections 2.5 or 2.6 hereof or, it will notify Borrower of such event
and the possible effects thereof, provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not affect Lender’s rights to reimbursement
provided for herein.

 

3.           Payments.
Borrower agrees that matters concerning prepayments, payments and application of payments shall be in accordance with Lender’s
practices set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.

 

3.1.          Prepayment.
Subject to Section 2.5.4 hereof, Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to Lender, prepay, without penalty,
all or a portion of the principal amount outstanding under the Subordinated Debt or the Revolving Loan in a minimum aggregate
amount of $100,000 or any larger integral multiple of $100,000 by paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with unpaid
accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in
any other Loan Document, principal amounts outstanding under the Term Loan may not be prepaid without the written consent and
approval of Lender, which consent and approval may be withheld at Lender’s sole and absolute discretion; provided, however,
that if all amounts outstanding under any other indebtedness owing from Borrower to Lender have been repaid and Borrower has satisfied
in full all other financial obligations to Lender, then Borrower may prepay, without penalty, all or a portion of the principal
amount outstanding under the Term Loan by paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with unpaid accrued interest thereon
to the date of prepayment.

3.2.          Manner
and Time of Payment. 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.

 

3.3.          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 shall be included in
the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

 

3.4.          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 5.6 or 8.5
of the Loan Agreement and , second to accrued interest under the Subordinated Debenture, third to accrued interest under the Term
Note, fourth to interest under the Revolving Note, fifth to principal amounts outstanding under the Revolving Note, sixth to principal
amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Debenture and then to principal amounts outstanding under the Term Note; provided, however,
subject to Section 8.6 of the Loan Agreement, that after the date on which the final payment of principal with respect
to any Loan is due or following and during any 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 or prepaid on any of the Notes (other than the Revolving Note) may
be reborrowed.

 

4.           miscellaneous.
The provisions of Section 9 of the Loan Agreement shall be incorporated in these Terms and Procedures as though restated herein,
mutatis mutandis.

 

5.           conflicts
with loan agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Loan Agreement and the terms of these Terms
and Procedures, the provisions of these Terms and Procedures shall govern.

 

6.           Counterpart
Execution. These Terms and Procedures may be executed in several counterparts each of which shall constitute an
original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement.
