	     Re:	 	Lease Agreement, dated October 2, 2007 (the “Lease”) by and between Mercantile
Bank of Michigan, a Michigan Banking Corporation (the “Tenant”) and CD Partners L.L.C.,
a Michigan limited liability company (“Landlord”) for premises located at 28350 Cabot
Drive, Novi, Michigan (the “Premises”).

Dear Bob:

     All capitalized terms in this letter (the “Lease Amendment”) which are not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease. Landlord and Tenant have negotiated
an early termination of the Term of the Lease and accordingly agree that the Lease shall be and
hereby is amended as follows, effective as of the date Tenant executes this Lease Amendment below
(the “Effective Date”):

     1. Subject to the Tenant’s performance of its obligations hereunder, the Term of the Lease
shall expire on 11:59 p.m., local time Detroit, Michigan on August 31, 2009 (the “Early Termination
Date”). On the Early Termination Date, the Term of the Lease shall expire. All of Tenant’s
options set forth in Lease, including the options to extend or contract the Term under Section 3 of
the Lease and the option to purchase the Premises under Section 26 of the Lease, are hereby
terminated. From the date hereof through the Early Termination Date, Tenant shall continue to
perform all of its obligations under the Lease, other than the obligation to pay Monthly
Installments of Base Rent, Real Estate Taxes and Building Expenses for the months of June, July and
August, 2009.

     2. In consideration of the early termination of the Term of the Lease, Tenant shall pay
Landlord the sum of $505,189.42 on or before June 1, 2009. Tenant’s failure to do so shall
constitute an Event of Default of the Lease, there shall be no cure period and Landlord may
immediately exercise all rights and remedies under the Lease and under applicable law, and Landlord
shall have the right to declare the early termination of the Lease to be of no further force or
effect and to terminate all of Tenant’s options set forth in Lease, including the options to extend
or contract the Term under Section 3 of the Lease and the option to purchase the Premises under
Section 26 of the Lease.

     3. Tenant shall deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord in the condition required under
the Lease (including the removal of the vault and the repair and restoration of the Premises in
accordance with Section 18.1 of the Lease) on or before the Early Termination Date. Tenant’s
failure to do so shall constitute an event of default under the Lease and entitling Landlord to
exercise all rights and remedies and under applicable law. In addition, for each 24 hour period or
portion thereof after 5:01 p.m. on the Early Termination Date which Tenant fails to surrender the
Premises to Landlord in the
 condition required under the Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the per
diem amount of the $1,029.50 if Landlord has not executed a lease or letter of intent for all or a
portion of the Premises with a tenant other than Tenant, and will be $1,715.87 if Landlord has
executed a lease or letter of intent. All such accrued sums shall be due on demand from Tenant to
Landlord and if not paid within 24 hours after Landlord’s demand, shall accrue interest and late
charges at the rates set forth in the Lease.

 

 

     4. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease Amendment and the early termination
of the Term in the event Landlord shall fail to obtain the approval of its lender (the “Landlord
Condition”). In the event that the Landlord Condition has not been satisfied or waived, Landlord
shall have the right to deliver written notice of termination of this Lease Amendment to Tenant
whereupon the $505,189.42 payment (if it has been paid prior to Landlord’s termination) shall be
returned to Tenant, the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease Amendment
shall terminate and the Lease shall remain in full force and effect as if this Lease Amendment had
not existed. If Landlord fails to deliver such notice to Tenant by May 28, 2009, at 5:00 p.m.,
local time Detroit, Michigan, or if Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant that the Landlord
Condition has been satisfied or waived by Landlord, Landlord’s right to cancel this Lease Amendment
shall automatically terminate and this Lease Amendment shall continue in full force and effect.

     5. Each party hereby acknowledges and represents to the other party that its undersigned
representative is fully authorized and empowered by such party to execute and bind such party to
this Lease Amendment.

     If the foregoing correctly sets forth our understanding, please evidence your acceptance of
the terms hereof by signing a counterpart on this letter on the line indicated below and returning
a fully executed copy of the letter to me.

     This CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (“Agreement”) is made and entered into by
and between AMERICAN COMMERCIAL LINES LLC (“the Company”), and W. Norbert Whitlock, his dependents,
heirs, attorneys, agents, successors and assigns (collectively referenced herein as “Employee”).

R E C I T A L S

     WHEREAS, Employee is currently employed by the Company as Executive Vice President Operations;
and

     WHEREAS, the Company has informed the Employee that his employment is being terminated and
that he may be qualified for severance benefits in accordance with the Company’s Salaried Severance
Policy and the terms of this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, both Employee and the Company (collectively, the “Parties”) desire and intend to
amicably sever the employment relationship between them in accordance with the terms outlined in
this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, the Parties have read and understood the terms of this Agreement and have been
provided a reasonable opportunity to consult with legal counsel prior to executing this Agreement.

     In consideration for the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the Parties agree as
follows:

     1. Termination. Employee’s employment with the Company will end on June 30, 2009 (the
“Termination Date”).

     2. Severance Payments. In consideration for the mutual promises and covenants set forth
herein, as well as the terms of the Salaried Severance Policy, incorporated herein by reference,
the Company agrees to provide Employee with the following:

          (a) Severance pay in an amount equal to Employee’s salary, at the rate in effect on the date
of his Termination Date, for Twenty-Six (26) Weeks (the “Severance Payments”). Such Severance
Payments shall be paid in Thirteen (13) equal semi-monthly installments, less statutory and
employee-authorized payroll deductions, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices
and procedures.

          (b) No payments shall be made under this paragraph until the expiration of the seven (7) day
revocation period set forth in Paragraph 8(e) herein.

     3. Employee Benefits.

          (a) Participation in Company-sponsored welfare plans shall cease on Employee’s Termination
Date. Employee may exercise his rights to continue coverage under the Company’s group health plan
at his own expense in accordance with applicable Federal law. The Company will provide timely
notice to Employee regarding these rights as required by law. In addition, Employee may exercise
any conversion rights available under other Company-sponsored welfare plans, in accordance with the
terms of such plans, if any.

          (b) Employee shall be entitled to any vested benefits under any Company benefit or retirement
plans in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan documents. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed to forfeit, modify or abridge any such vested benefits.

          (c) For stock grants issued to Employee prior to January 1, 2009, Employee shall be entitled
to any benefits provided under any Company stock plans in accordance with the terms of the
applicable plan documents and award agreements as they relate to termination of employment without
“Cause”. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to forfeit, modify or abridge any such
benefits. All unvested stock awards issued on or after January 1, 2009 will be forfeited as of
Employee’s Termination Date.

          (d) The Company shall reimburse Employee for all business expenses incurred prior to his
Employee’s Termination Date, provided that such expenses are in compliance with Company policies
and Employee submits acceptable documentation of such expenses.

     4. Vacation. Employee will be paid his accrued but unused vacation in accordance with the
Company’s

Vacation policy and applicable law.

     5. General Release. Employee, on behalf of himself, his spouse, dependents, heirs, attorneys,
successors and assigns, hereby releases, holds harmless and forever discharges American Commercial
Lines LLC, as well as its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, predecessors,
employees, agents, attorneys, directors and officers, past and present, stockholders and estates in
their individual and business capacities, jointly and severally, (collectively referenced herein as
“the Released Parties”), from any and all claims, damages, fees, costs or other equitable, legal,
statutory or common law relief for any causes of action, obligations, contracts, torts, claims,
costs, penalties, fines, liabilities, attorneys’ fees, demands or suits, of whatever kind or
character, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether asserted or
unasserted, arising out of or related to Employee’s prior employment with the Company, Employee’s
termination from employment with the Company, any other policies or agreements governing terms of
Employee’s employment, and any acts or omissions by the Company or any of the Company’s current and
former officers, directors, shareholders, principals, attorneys, agents, employees, attorneys,
affiliates, parent companies, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, at any time up through the
Effective Date of this Agreement. This Agreement shall specifically apply to, but shall not be
limited to, claims for violation of civil rights, including violations of Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act, or any other local, state or federal statute (or constitution), including but
not limited to any claim based upon race, sex, national origin, ancestry, religion, age, mental or
physical disability, marital status, sexual preference or denial of Family and Medical Leave;
claims arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1978 (“ERISA”), or pertaining
to ERISA-regulated benefits; claims arising under the Fair Labor Standards Act, including any
claims for wages, vacation pay, severance pay, bonus compensation, commissions, deferred
compensation, other remuneration of any kind or character; claims for violations of any other
federal, state or local law governing employment or labor relations; claims for any obligations,
agreements, express or implied contracts; claims for defamation, invasion of privacy, assault and
battery, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, negligence, gross negligence,
estoppel, conspiracy or misrepresentation; express or implied duties of good faith and fair
dealing; wrongful discharge, violations of public policy; and/or torts for any and all alleged
acts, omissions or events up through the Effective Date of this Agreement.

     Because you are no longer an employee, you are no longer covered by the Company Securities
Trading Policy and there are no trailing contractual constraints related to the exercise of options
or purchase or sale of Company stock. You acknowledge you are aware of the Federal securities laws
and regulations that prohibit the purchase or sale of a security at a time when an individual
possesses material nonpublic information. You will indemnify the Company for any and all claims,
damages, fees, costs or other equitable, legal, statutory or common law causes of action related to
any trade you make.

     6. Receipt of Wages and Commissions. Employee shall be paid all salary to which he is

fully understands all of the provisions and effects of this Agreement; that he has been advised to

attorneys have made any representations or promises as to the terms or effects of this Agreement
other than those contained here.

          (a) Employee understands that local, state and federal laws, including the AGE DISCRIMINATION
IN EMPLOYMENT ACT, prohibit employment discrimination based upon age, sex, race, color, national
origin, ethnicity, religion, or disability. Employee further understands and agrees that, by
signing this Agreement, he agrees to waive any and all such claims, and release the Company from
any and all such claims.

          (b) Employee acknowledges that he has been advised in writing to consult with an attorney and
has been provided with a reasonable opportunity to consult with an attorney prior to signing this
Agreement, which

contains a general release and waiver of claims.

          (c) Employee acknowledges that the Severance Payments required to be paid pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement constitute monies to which Employee otherwise would not be entitled, and
that Employee is being paid the Severance Payments in consideration for his signing of this
Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Salaried Severance Policy.

          (d) Employee acknowledges that he has FORTY-FIVE (45) DAYS after receiving this Agreement, up

similar to that in which Employee engaged during the Employee’s employment with the Company or for

disclose any Confidential Information, the Employee will promptly notify the Company in advance of
any disclosure so that the Company may attempt to obtain an appropriate protective order. Except

LLC, 1701 E. Market Street, Jeffersonville, Indiana 47130.

     13. Confidentiality and Trade Secrets. The Parties agree that neither party, nor anyone
acting in on their respective behalves, shall initiate or cause to be initiated any publicity or

effect at any time during his employment with the Company (“Company Policies”), that he shall
forfeit all benefits provided by this Agreement. A finding of misconduct constituting a breach of
any one or more of the Company Policies will also constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

unauthorized use or disclosure by employee of confidential information or trade secrets of the
Company, or any other intentional misconduct by employee adversely affecting the business or
affairs of the Company in a material manner. The foregoing definition shall not be deemed to be
inclusive of all the acts or omissions which the Company may consider as misconduct under this
Agreement.

     17. Choice of Law. This Agreement is made in the State of Indiana, and shall in all respects
be interpreted, enforced and governed under the laws of the State of Indiana without respect to
choice of law principles, or by Federal law where applicable.

     18. Modifications. The Parties agree that the provisions of this agreement may not be
modified by any subsequent agreement unless the modifying Agreement is: (i) in writing; (ii)
specifically references this Agreement; (iii) is signed by Employee; and (iv) is signed and
approved by an authorized officer of the Company.

     19. Integration. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the Parties; that the Parties have executed this Agreement based upon the terms

it effective and in accordance with any applicable laws and additionally that the remaining
provisions shall remain effective, binding and enforceable. The Parties further acknowledge and
agree that the failure of any party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute
a waiver of that provision, or of any other provision of this Agreement.
