A G R E E M E N T:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

     Section 1.1 Sale and Purchase.

          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to
Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, at the Closing (as defined below), at
least 116,666,667 shares but no more than 483,333,333 shares of the Common Stock (with the exact
amount to be determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion), for a purchase price of $0.60 per

Purchased Stock and $0.60 is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”

          (b) In the event that, subsequent to the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing, the
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged

recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other like
changes in the Company’s capitalization, (i) the number of shares of Common Stock constituting the
Purchased Stock shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after, and the denominator of which shall be the
number of such shares outstanding immediately before, the occurrence of such event (the
“Adjustment Factor”), and the resulting number shall from and after the date of such event
be the number of shares of Common Stock constituting the Purchased Stock, subject to further
adjustment in accordance with this sentence, and
(ii) the purchase price per share of Purchased Stock shall be divided by the Adjustment Factor, and
the resulting number shall from and after the date of such event be the purchase price per share of
Purchased Stock, subject to further adjustment in accordance with this sentence.

     Section 1.2 Additional Due Diligence Investigation. During the period beginning on the date
of this Agreement through and including fifth Business Day following the date on which the Company
files its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 (the “Third

permit Purchaser to conduct an additional pre-Closing comprehensive investigation, review and
analysis of the loan portfolio, books, records and facilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
Purchaser shall have the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement by
giving to the Company by 5:00 p.m., Central Standard Time, on the last day of the Due Diligence
Period, written notice of its election to terminate pursuant to this Section 1.2 if such
pre-Closing investigation, review and analysis discovers matters that are not completely
satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole discretion. Nothing in this Section 1.2 shall limit in any
respect any other right or basis that Purchaser may then or thereafter have to terminate this
Agreement by reason of any breach hereof by the Company or any breach or inaccuracy of any of the
representations and warranties of the Company, or because of the failure of any of the conditions
set forth in Section 6.1.

predictive or forward-looking in nature) or (ii) as disclosed in the corresponding section of the
disclosure schedule provided by the Company to Purchaser on the date hereof (the “Company
Disclosure Schedule”) (it being agreed that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the

Subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Company has made payment of all franchise and similar taxes in
the State of Wisconsin, and in all of the jurisdictions in which it is qualified to do business,

amended (“HOLA”).

     Section 3.2 Capitalization.

as Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, liquidation preference $1,000.00 per
share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), all of which are issued and outstanding and held by the
U.S. Treasury. All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series B Preferred Stock have been
duly authorized, are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were offered, sold and issued
in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws and without violating any
contractual obligation or any other preemptive or similar rights. Section 3.2(a) of the Company
Disclosure Schedule contains a list setting forth as of the date of this Agreement all outstanding
Company Stock Options, the names of the optionees, the date each such option was granted, the
number of shares subject to each such option, the expiration date of each such option, any vesting

          (b) There are no outstanding bonds, debentures, notes, debt securities or other indebtedness for

which the shareholders of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may vote (“Voting Debt”).
Section 3.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all

unpaid principal amount in excess of $1 million on the date of this Agreement.

          (c) Except as set forth in paragraph (a) above, there are no issued, outstanding or authorized
securities (including securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of
capital stock or other equity or voting securities) of the Company and (except for (i) the issuance
and sale of the Purchased Stock contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the agreement referred to in
Section 5.18 pursuant to which shares of Common Stock may be issued to the U.S. Treasury, (iii) the
agreement referred to in Section 5.19 pursuant to which shares of Common Stock may be issued to the
lenders that are a party to the Existing Loan Agreement and (iv) the New Loan Agreement pursuant to
which promissory notes that are

Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound obligating the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, additional shares
of capital stock or other equity or voting securities of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries
(or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock or other
equity or voting securities) or obligating the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, grant,

subsequent filing) contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and there are no outstanding comments
from the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports. None of the Company’s Subsidiaries is required
to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

          (b) Since January 1, 2006, (i) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the
knowledge of the Company, any director, officer, employee, auditor, accountant or representative of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any
material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the
accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of the Company or any of its

copies of which letters have been made available to Purchaser and (ii) no attorney representing the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not employed by the Company or any of its

the Board of Directors of the Company or any committee thereof or to any director or officer of the
Company.

financial statements of the Company (including any related notes thereto) included in the SEC
Reports (the “Financial Statements”) are true and correct in all material respects, are in
accordance with the books of account and records of the Company and have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP, or applicable banking rules and regulations, as the case may be, applied on a
basis consistent with prior periods, and fairly and accurately present the consolidated financial
condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and its and their respective assets, liabilities,
shareholders’ equity and results of operations as of such date. The Financial Statements contain
and reflect provisions for taxes, reserves and other liabilities of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP or applicable banking rules and regulations, as the case may
be.

          (b) Except as disclosed in Section 3.8, and except for (i) those liabilities that are fully

Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby.

7

 

     Section 3.8 No Material Adverse Changes. Except as described on Section 3.8 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule, since March 31, 2009, (i) no event, change or circumstance has occurred which,
individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect and (ii) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action or
entered into any transaction, and no event has occurred, that would have required Purchaser’s
consent pursuant to Section 5.2 if such action had been taken, transaction had been entered into or
event had occurred, in each case, after the date of this Agreement.

     Section 3.9 Title to Properties and Assets. (a) The Company and its Subsidiaries have good
and marketable fee title to all real property, and good and marketable title to all other property
and assets reflected in the latest balance sheet included as part of the Financial Statements or
purported to have been acquired by the Company or its Subsidiaries subsequent to such date, except
(i) real property and other assets acquired and/or being acquired from debtors in full or partial
satisfaction of obligations owed to the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (ii)
property or other assets
leased by the Company or its Subsidiaries, and (iii) property and assets sold or otherwise disposed
of subsequent to the date of such balance sheet. Except for properties and other assets acquired
and/or being acquired from debtors in full or partial satisfaction of obligations owed to the
Company or any Subsidiary and properties or other assets leased by the Company or any Subsidiary,
and except as disclosed in the Financial Statements, all material property and assets of any kind
(real or personal, tangible or intangible) of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries are free
from any Encumbrances, except Encumbrances for current Taxes not yet due and payable and other
standard exceptions commonly found in title policies in the jurisdiction where such real property
is located, and such Encumbrances and imperfections of title, if any, as do not materially detract
from the value of the properties and do not materially interfere with the present or proposed use
of such properties.

          (b) Except as reflected in the Financial Statements, none of the assets or property the value of
which is reflected in the latest balance sheet that is included as part of the Financial Statements
is held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as lessee under any lease, or as conditional
vendee under any conditional sales contract or other title retention agreement. The Company and
each of its Subsidiaries enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession under all of the material leases
under which they are operating, all of which permit the customary operations of the Company and
each of its Subsidiaries. None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in default and, to the
Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice,
or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default under any such lease, except for any
default or potential default which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

     Section 3.10 Compliance with Law. (a) Except as listed on Schedule 3.10 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule, each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is and will continue to be in
material compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable
material restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Entities in respect of the conduct of its
business and the ownership of its property (including applicable statutes, regulations, orders and
restrictions relating to environmental standards and controls), except such noncompliance as would
not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with the
applicable provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 and the regulations promulgated
thereunder (collectively, “CRA”). The Bank has received CRA ratings of “satisfactory” in
its most recently completed exam.

     Section 3.11 Agreements with Regulatory Agencies. Other than the Order to Cease and Desist,
dated June 26, 2009, entered into by the Company and the Bank with the OTS (the “Specified 

8

 

Regulatory Agreement”), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any
cease-and-desist or other order or directive (other than those generally applicable to businesses
such as the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) issued by, or is a party to any
written agreement, consent agreement or memorandum of understanding with, or is a party to any
commitment letter or similar undertaking to, or is a recipient of any extraordinary supervisory
letter from, or has adopted any board resolutions at the request of (each, whether or not described
above or set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule, a “Company Regulatory Agreement”),
any Governmental Entity that currently restricts or by its terms will in the future restrict the
conduct of its business or relates to its capital adequacy, its credit or risk management policies,
its dividend policies, its management or its business, nor has the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries been advised by any Governmental Entity that it is considering issuing or requesting
the Company or any Subsidiary to enter into or become bound by any Company Regulatory Agreement.

     Section 3.12 Pending Litigation. Except as listed on Section 3.12 of the Company Disclosure
Schedule, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or written agreements pending, or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened, against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at law or in
equity or before or by any federal, state, municipal, or other governmental
department, commission, board, or other administrative agency. To the best knowledge of the
Company, nothing disclosed on Section 3.12 of the Company Disclosure Schedule would, if adversely
determined, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and none of the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default
with respect to any material order, writ, injunction, or decree of, or any written agreement with,
any court, commission, board or agency.

     Section 3.13 Certain Contracts. (a) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to or is bound by any contract, arrangement, commitment or understanding (whether written or
oral): (i) which is a material contract (as defined in Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K of the
SEC) to be performed in whole or in part after the date of this Agreement; (ii) which limits the
freedom of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to compete in any line of business, in any
geographic area or with any Person, or which requires referrals of business or requires the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries to make available investment or business opportunities to any Person on
a priority or exclusive basis; (iii) which relates to the incurrence of indebtedness with an unpaid
principal amount in excess of $1 million (other than deposit liabilities, advances and loans from
the FHLB of Chicago and sales of securities subject to repurchase, in each case incurred in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, including any sale and leaseback transactions, capitalized leases and other similar
financing transactions; (iv) which limits the payment of dividends by the Company or the Bank; or
(v) for a joint venture, partnership, or similar agreement for a business venture involving a
sharing of profits or expenses. Each contract, arrangement, commitment or understanding of the type
described in this Section 3.13(a), whether or not publicly disclosed in the SEC Reports described
in clause (i) of the introductory paragraph of this ARTICLE III or set forth in Section 3.13(a) of
the Company Disclosure Schedule, is referred to herein as a “Company Contract.” The Company
has made available all contracts which involved payments by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
during the year ended March 31, 2009 of more than $1 million or which would reasonably be expected
to involve payments during the year ended March 31, 2010 of more than $1 million, other than any
such contract that is terminable at will on 60 days or less notice without payment of a penalty and
other than any contract entered into on or after the date hereof that is permitted under the
provisions of Section 5.2.

          (b) (i) Each Company Contract is valid and binding on the Company or its applicable Subsidiary and
is in full force and effect, and, to the knowledge of the Company, is valid and binding on the
other parties thereto, (ii) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the
Company, each of the other parties thereto, has in all material respects performed all obligations
required to be performed by it to date under each Company Contract, and (iii) no event or condition
exists which

9

 

constitutes or, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material breach or
default on the part of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company,
any other party thereto, under any such Company Contract, except, in each case, where such
invalidity, failure to be binding, failure to so perform or breach or default, individually or in
the aggregate, would not have or reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     Section 3.14 Insurance. The Company and its Subsidiaries are insured with reputable and
financially sound insurers against such risks and in such amounts as is sufficient to comply with
applicable Law, is consistent with industry practice and which the management of the Company
reasonably has determined to be prudent. Section 3.14 of the Company Disclosure Schedule contains a
true and complete list and summary description (including name of insurer, agent, coverage and
expiration date) of all insurance policies in force on the date hereof that are material to the
business and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in
material compliance with such insurance policies and are not in default under any of the material
terms thereof. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary thereof has taken any action or failed to
take any action which, with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute such a default.
None of the execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreements, the performance by the Company of
its obligations thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will
constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a
default) under, or result in the cancellation of or non-compliance with any provisions of, such
policies (including any change of control provisions thereof), except for such defaults or other
events which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Each such policy is outstanding and in full force and effect and except for
policies insuring against potential liabilities of officers, directors and employees of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, the Company or the relevant Subsidiary thereof is the sole beneficiary of
such policies. No written notice of cancellation or termination has been received with respect to
any such policy. All premiums and other payments due under any such policy have been paid, and all
claims thereunder have been filed in due and timely fashion.

     Section 3.15 Tax Matters. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has filed and will
continue to file all tax returns required to be filed by it and has paid and will pay all income
taxes payable by it which have become due pursuant to such tax returns and all other taxes and
assessments payable by it which have become due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for
those contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established. Each of the
Company and its Subsidiaries has paid, or has provided adequate reserves (in the good faith
judgment of the management of Borrower) for the payment of, all federal and state income taxes
applicable for all prior fiscal years and for the current fiscal year to the date hereof. The
Company has no knowledge of any audit, assessment or other proposed action or inquiry of the
Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority with respect to any tax liability of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

     Section 3.16 Hazardous Materials. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in
material violation of any applicable statute, regulation, ordinance or policy of any governmental
entity relating to the ecology, human health, safety or the environment and, to the Company’s
knowledge, no Hazardous Material is located on any real property owned or leased by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or has been discharged from or to, or penetrated into, any real property
(or surface or subsurface rivers or streams crossing or adjoining any real property) owned or
leased by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the aquifer underlying any real property owned
or leased by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

     Section 3.17 Intellectual Property. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect: (a) the Company and/or each of its
Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed or otherwise possesses sufficient rights to use such rights as it
has in and

10

 

to all the Company Intellectual Property; (b) the use of the Company Intellectual Property by the
Company and its Subsidiaries does not constitute an infringement or misappropriation of any valid
third party Intellectual Property right in existence as of the date hereof; (iv) except for
allegations that have since been resolved, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
received any written notice from any Person alleging that the use of any of the Company
Intellectual Property or the operation of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ businesses infringes,
dilutes (in the case of trademarks), or otherwise violates the Intellectual Property of such
Person.

     Section 3.18 Employee Matters. Except as set forth in Section 3.18 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule, there are no material controversies pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any current or former
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. There has been no “mass layoff” or “plant
closing” as defined by the Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification Act or similar state or local
“plant closing” Law with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since January 1, 2006.
Since January 1, 2006, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has experienced any employee
strikes, work stoppages, slowdowns or lockouts. There is no material unfair labor practice
complaint against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened before any Governmental Entity, and no pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened arbitration arising out of any collective bargaining agreement.

     Section 3.19 Employee Benefit Plans. (a) Section 3.19(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule
contains a true and complete list of each material Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
“Plan” shall mean any “employee benefit plan”(within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the

multiemployer plans within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(37)), stock purchase, stock option,
severance, employment, loan, change-in-control, fringe benefit, collective bargaining, bonus,
incentive, deferred compensation and all other employee benefit plans, agreements, programs,
policies or other arrangements, whether or not subject to ERISA (including any funding mechanism
therefore now in effect or required in the future as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or otherwise), whether formal or informal, oral or written, legally binding or not,
under which any current or former employee, officer, director, consultant or independent contractor
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (“Company Employees”) has any present or future
right to benefits or under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has any present or future
material liability.

          (b) With respect to each Plan, the Company has made available to Purchaser a current, accurate and
complete copy (or, to the extent no such copy exists, an accurate description) thereof and, to the
extent applicable: (i) any related trust agreement or other funding instrument; (ii) the most
recent determination letter, if applicable; (iii) any summary plan
description and other written communications by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Company
Employees concerning the extent of the benefits provided under a Plan; and (iv) a summary of any

          (c) (i) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a Material Adverse Effect, each Plan has been established and administered in accordance with its
terms, and in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other applicable
laws, rules and regulations; (ii) each Plan which is intended to be qualified within the meaning of
Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has received a favorable determination letter as to
its qualification, and to the knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred, whether by action or
failure to act, that would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification; (iii) no
event has occurred and no condition exists that would subject the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, either directly or by reason of

11

 

their affiliation with any “ERISA Affiliate” (defined as any organization which is a member
of a controlled group of organizations within the meaning of Sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of
the Code), to any material tax, fine, lien, penalty or other liability imposed by ERISA, the Code
or other applicable laws, rules and regulations; (iv) for each Plan with respect to which a Form
5500 has been filed, no material change has occurred with respect to the matters covered by the
most recent Form since the date thereof, (v) no “reportable event”(as such term is defined in
Section 4043 of ERISA), “prohibited transaction”(as such term is defined in Section 406 of ERISA
and Section 4975 of the Code) or “accumulated funding deficiency”(as such term is defined in
Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code (whether or not waived)) has occurred with respect
to any Plan; (vi) except as set forth in Section 3.19(c)(vi) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, no
Plan provides post-employment welfare (including health, medical or life insurance) benefits and
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries have any obligation to provide any such
post-employment welfare benefits now or in the future, other than as required by Section 4980B of
the Code; (vii) there is no present intention that any Plan be materially amended, suspended or
terminated, or otherwise modified to adversely change benefits (or the levels thereof) under any
Plan at any time within the twelve months immediately following the date hereof; and (viii) neither
the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in, or is a successor or parent corporation to an
entity that has engaged in, a transaction described in Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

          (d) None of the Plans is a “single employer plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(41) of ERISA)
nor a “multiemployer plan” (within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA) and none of the
Company, its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has at any time sponsored or contributed to, or
has or had any material liability with respect to a single employer plan or a multiemployer plan
that remains unsatisfied.

          (e) With respect to any Plan: (i) no Actions (other than routine claims for benefits in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) are pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened; (ii) to the knowledge of the Company, no facts or circumstances exist that
would reasonably be expected to give rise to any such Actions; (iii) no written or oral
communication has been received from the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”)

or any transfer of assets and liabilities from any such plan in connection with the transactions
contemplated herein; and (iv) no administrative investigation, audit or other administrative
proceeding by the Department of Labor, the PBGC, the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental
Entities are pending or in progress or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened (excluding any
routine requests for information from the PBGC).

any money or other property or accelerate or provide any other rights or benefits to any present or
former Company Employee as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. There is no
Plan that, individually or collectively, could give, or has given, rise to the payment of any
amount that would reasonably be expected to be subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the
Code.

     Section 3.20 Board Approval; Requisite Shareholder Approvals. (a) The Board of Directors of

that such agreements, such amendment and such transactions are fair to and in the best interests of

upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, upon conversion of all or a portion of the amounts
due and outstanding under the Existing Loan Agreement and upon conversion of the convertible

and directed that such matters be submitted for consideration by the shareholders of the Company at
the Company Shareholders Meeting.

          (b) The affirmative vote of (i) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
to adopt the Charter Amendment and (ii) the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock
having voting power and present in person or represented by proxy and voting at a meeting at which
the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock are present or represented by proxy to
approve (w) the issuance of the Purchased Stock pursuant to this Agreement, (x) the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock currently held by the U.S.
Treasury, (y) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of all or a portion of the
amounts due and outstanding under the Existing Loan Agreement and (z) the issuance of shares of
Common Stock upon conversion of the convertible promissory notes to be issued pursuant to the New
Loan Agreement (together, the “Requisite Shareholder Approvals”) are the only votes of the
holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Company necessary to approve the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, or to approve the
related transactions that are conditions to Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Purchased Stock
at the Closing, as set forth in Section 6.1(k) and Section 6.1(l).

     Section 3.21 Opinion of Financial Advisor. The Company has received the opinion of Stifel,
Nicolaus & Co., Inc., dated as of the date of this Agreement, to the effect that, as of such date,
the consideration to be paid to the Company in connection with the issuance and sale of the
Purchased Stock is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Common Stock.

     Section 3.22 Broker’s Fees. Except for fees payable to Badger Capital pursuant to the
Badger Fee Agreement, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary thereof nor any of their respective
officers or directors has employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any broker’s
fees, commissions or finder’s fees in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. True, correct and complete copies of all agreements with Badger Capital pertaining to
broker’s fees, commissions or finder’s fees in connection with any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement have previously been made available to Purchaser.

     Section 3.23 Loan Matters. (a) (i) Section 3.23 of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets
forth a list of all extensions of credit (including commitments to extend credit) (“Loans”)
by the Company and its Subsidiaries to any directors, executive officers and principal shareholders
(as such terms are defined in Regulation O (“Regulation O”) of the Federal Reserve Board
(12 C.F.R. Part 215)) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) there are no employee,
officer, director or other affiliate Loans
on which the borrower is paying a rate other than that reflected in the note or the relevant credit
agreement or on which the borrower is paying a rate which was below market at the time the Loan was
made; and
(iii) all such Loans are and were made in compliance in all material respects with all applicable
Law.

          (b) All reserves for loan losses shown on the financial statements of the Company included in the
2009 Form 10-K and in the Forms 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 2009 and

13

 

September 30, 2009 have been calculated in accordance with prudent and customary banking practices
and are adequate in all material respects to reflect all known and reasonably anticipated risk of
losses inherent in the Loans of the Company and its Subsidiaries. To the knowledge of the Company,
no fact exists which would be reasonably likely to require a future material increase in the
provision for loan losses reflected in such financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The Bank
does not have any Loan exceeding its legal lending limit or any Loan with an unpaid principal
amount or unfunded commitment in excess of $500,000 which is, or in accordance with applicable
regulatory requirements should be, classified as sub-standard, doubtful or a loss, except as set
forth in Section 3.23(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

          (c) None of the material agreements pursuant to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has
sold Loans or pools of Loans or participations in Loans or pools of Loans contains any continuing
obligation to repurchase such Loans or interests therein solely on account of a payment default by
the obligor on any such Loan, other than (i) customary repurchase obligations pursuant to standard
agreements with Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and (ii) customary repurchase obligations on account of
an early payment default.

     Section 3.24 Transactions with Affiliates. Except (i) for Loans by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries to any directors, executive officers and principal shareholders pursuant to
Regulation O and set forth in Section 3.24 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and (ii) for any
arrangement, contract, agreement or transaction which involves aggregate per annum payments by the
Company and its Subsidiaries of less than $120,000, there are no contracts or other agreements
between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of its Affiliates (other
than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or any officer, director or employee of any such
Affiliate, on the other hand.

     Section 3.25 Controls and Procedures. The Company: (i) has implemented and maintains
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) to ensure
that material information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the
chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of the Company by others within those
entities; and
(ii) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to the Company’s
independent registered accounting firm and the audit committee of the Board of Directors (A) any
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls
over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that are reasonably
likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
information and
(B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a
significant role in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

     Section 3.26 Valid Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of
Purchaser contained in Section 4.2, the offer, sale and issuance by the Company of the Purchased
Stock to Purchaser will be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and will have been registered or qualified (or are
exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or qualification
requirements of all applicable state or other local securities laws.

     Section 3.27 Takeover Statutes; No Rights Plan. The Board of Directors has taken or will
take all necessary action to ensure that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be
deemed approved by the Board of Directors for the purposes of Section 180.1143 of the Wisconsin
Business Corporation Law. No other takeover, anti-takeover, “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control
share acquisition” or other similar Law (including Section 180.1143 of the Wisconsin Business
Corporation Law, a “Takeover Statute”) or any anti-takeover provision in the Company’s
articles of incorporation or bylaws is applicable to the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Agreements or the Voting

14

 

Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. The Company does not have any shareholder
rights plan in effect.

     Section 3.28 Investment Company Act. None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is an
“investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     Section 3.29 No Misstatement of Material Fact. No information, exhibit, report or document
furnished by the Company to Purchaser in connection with the negotiation or execution of the
Transaction Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material
fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading when taken as a
whole, all as of the date when furnished to the Company.

to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, no consents or approvals of, or filings or
registrations by, Purchaser or Badger Capital with any Governmental Entity or with any other third

     Section 4.5 No Brokers. As of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser has not employed any
broker or finder, or incurred any liability for any brokerage or finders’ fees or any similar fees

thereto) prior to filing with the SEC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser
will furnish to the Company the information relating to it required by the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be set forth in the Proxy Statement. Each of the
Company and Purchaser shall promptly: (i) notify the other of the receipt of any comments from the
SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement and of any request by the SEC for amendments of, or
supplements to, the Proxy Statement; and (ii) provide the other with copies of all filings made

the Company and Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond to and resolve all
comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement as promptly as practicable.

          (d) The Company shall mail, as promptly as practicable after filing, the definitive Proxy Statement
to the holders of Common Stock as of the record date established for the Company Shareholders
Meeting. If, at any time prior to the Closing, any event or circumstance relating to the Company or
Purchaser, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by
the Company or Purchaser, respectively, which, pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy
Statement, such party shall promptly inform the other. Each of Purchaser and the Company agrees to
correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement which shall have become false
or misleading in any material respect.

     Section 5.5 Company Shareholders Meeting. The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably
practicable following the date of this Agreement, establish a record date for, duly call, give
notice of, convene and hold the Company Shareholders Meeting. At such Company Shareholders Meeting,
the Company shall make the Company Recommendation to its shareholders, and the Company shall use
all reasonable best efforts to solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of the approval of
the proposals described in the Proxy Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
obligated to recommend to its shareholders the approval of the proposals set forth in the Proxy
Statement or solicit proxies in favor of such approval to the extent that the Board of Directors of
the Company has duly made a Change in Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.6.

     Section 5.6 No Solicitation of Competing Proposal.

          (a) From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing and the date, if
any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company agrees that neither
it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, and that it shall direct and use its reasonable best efforts
to cause the Company Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or encourage
any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or negotiate with, provide any non-public information to,
or
consider the merits of any unsolicited inquiries or proposals from, any Person (other than
Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof) relating to any Acquisition Transaction or a potential
Acquisition Transaction involving the

21

 

Company or any Company Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may provide
information at the request of, or enter into negotiations with, a third party with respect to an
Acquisition Transaction that was not directly or indirectly, after the date hereof, made,
encouraged, facilitated, solicited, initiated or assisted by the Company, any Company Subsidiary or
any of their respective directors, officers, employees, professional or financial advisors,
representatives, agents or Affiliates (an “Unsolicited Company Proposal”), but only to the
extent that the Board of Directors of the Company determines, in good faith, that the exercise of
its fiduciary duties to the Company’s shareholders under applicable law, as advised by its counsel,
requires it to take such action, and provided that the Company may not, in any event, provide to
such third party any information which it has not provided to Purchaser. The Company shall promptly
notify Purchaser orally, confirmed in writing, in the event it receives any such inquiry or
proposal and shall provide reasonable detail of all relevant facts relating to such inquiries.
Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the foregoing restrictions
by any Subsidiary of the Company or any Company Representative shall be deemed to be a breach of
this Section 5.6 by the Company.

          (b) Except as provided in Section 5.6 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Company shall, and
shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, and shall direct and use its reasonable best efforts to
cause each of the Company Representatives to, immediately cease any existing solicitations,
discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to a potential Acquisition Transaction.

          (c) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 5.6(a) and (b), if after the date of this
Agreement the Company receives an Unsolicited Company Proposal which did not result from or arise
in connection with a breach of Section 5.6(a) or (b) and which: (i) constitutes a Superior Proposal
(as defined below); or (ii) which the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith,
after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors, could reasonably be
expected to result, after the taking of any of the actions referred to in either of clause (x) or
(y) below, in a Superior Proposal, the Company may take the following actions: (x) furnish
nonpublic information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the third party making
such Unsolicited Company Proposal, if, and only if, prior to so furnishing such information, the
Company and such third party enter into a confidentiality agreement and (y) engage in discussions
or negotiations with the third party with respect to the Unsolicited Company Proposal; provided,
however, that as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Company taking such actions as
described in clauses (x) or (y) above, the Company shall provide written notice to Purchaser of
such Superior Proposal or the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company as provided
for in clause (ii) above, as applicable.

          (d) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, qualify
or modify the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Purchaser, or publicly propose to do
so, or take any other action or make any other public statement in connection with the Company
Shareholders Meeting or otherwise which is inconsistent with the Company Recommendation (any of the
foregoing, a “Change in Recommendation”) or approve or recommend or publicly propose to
approve or recommend, any other Acquisition Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the
limitations set forth in Section 5.6(a) and (b), if, prior to receipt of the Requisite Shareholder
Approvals, the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with
the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors, that failure to so withdraw, qualify or modify
the Company Recommendation would be reasonably likely to constitute a breach by the Board of
Directors of the Company of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Board of Directors of
the Company may effect a Change in Recommendation; provided, however, that if such Change in
Recommendation is the result of a Superior Proposal, the Company shall have first: (i) provided
five Business Days’ prior written notice (such notice, a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) to
Purchaser that it is prepared to effect a Change in Recommendation in response to a Superior
Proposal and specifying the reasons therefor, including the terms and conditions of the Superior
Proposal that is the basis of the

22

 

proposed Change in Recommendation, and the identity of the Person making the proposal; (ii)
provided to Purchaser all non-public information delivered or made available to the Person making
any Superior Proposal in connection with such Superior Proposal that was not previously delivered
or made available to Purchaser; (iii) provided to Purchaser copies of documents relating the
Superior Proposal provided to the Company by the Person making the proposal, including the
letter or other document containing such person’s proposal and the terms and conditions thererof;
and (iv) during such five Business Day period, if requested by Purchaser, engaged in, and caused
its financial and legal advisors to engage in, good faith negotiations with Purchaser to amend this
Agreement.

          (e) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 5.6(a) and (b), if the Board of Directors
of the Company has effected a Change in Recommendation in compliance with the requirements of
Section 5.6(d), then the Board of Directors of the Company may, prior to the date on which the
condition set forth in Section 6.1(j) is satisfied and concurrently with such Change in
Recommendation, cause the Company to enter into a binding written agreement with respect to such
Superior Proposal and terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(g); provided,
however, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.6(e), and
any purported termination pursuant to this Section 5.6(e) shall be void and of no force or effect,
unless prior to or concurrently with such termination the Company pays the Termination Fee payable
pursuant to Section 7.2(c).

          (f) As used in this Agreement, “Acquisition Transaction” shall mean: (i) a merger,
reorganization, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, dissolution,
liquidation, or similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries;
(ii) the issuance by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries of securities representing
20% or more of its outstanding voting securities (including upon the conversion, exercise or
exchange of securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such voting securities);
or (iii) the acquisition in any manner, directly or indirectly, of (x) 20% or more of the
outstanding voting securities of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (including
through the acquisition of securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such
voting securities), (y) 20% or more of the consolidated total assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (z) one or more businesses or divisions that constitute 20% or
more of the revenues or net income of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

          (g) As used in this agreement, “Superior Proposal” shall mean a bona fide written
Unsolicited Company Proposal (not solicited or initiated in violation of Section 5.6(a) or (b))
that relates to a potential Acquisition Transaction that is determined in good faith by the Board
of Directors of the Company, after consultation with the Company’s legal and financial advisors, is
on terms that are more favorable to the shareholders of the Company than the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and has a reasonable prospect of being consummated in accordance
with its terms

     Section 5.7 Efforts. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the
Company and Purchaser shall, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable
best efforts: (i) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements;
and (ii) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other party to obtain) any consent, authorization,
confirmation, determination, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity and
any other third party which is required to be obtained by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or
Purchaser, Badger Capital or any of the investors listed in Section 6.1(d)(ii) of Purchaser
Disclosure Schedule in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
other Transaction Agreements; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to take any
action pursuant to the foregoing sentence if the taking of such action or the obtaining of such
consents, authorizations, orders, approvals or exemptions is

23

 

reasonably likely to result in a condition or restriction having an effect of the type referred to
in the last sentence of Section 6.1(d)(i).

          (b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the proviso in Section
5.7(a)), each of the Company and Purchaser agrees to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause
to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable
to consummate and make effective, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Agreements.

     Section 5.8 Notification of Certain Matters. (a) During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company
shall give prompt notice to Purchaser of the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event known to the
Company the occurrence or non-occurrence of which would reasonably be expected to cause the
condition in Section 6.1(a) not to be satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice
pursuant to this Section 5.8(a) shall not cure any breach of any representation or warranty
requiring disclosure of such matter prior to the date of this Agreement or otherwise limit or
affect the remedies available hereunder to Purchaser.

          (b) During the Pre-Closing Period, Purchaser shall give prompt notice to the Company of the
occurrence or non-occurrence of any event known to Purchaser the
occurrence or non-occurrence of
which would reasonably be expected to cause the condition in Section 6.2(a) not to be satisfied;
provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.8(b) shall not cure
any breach of any representation or warranty requiring disclosure of such matter prior to the date
of this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the Company.

     Section 5.9 Regulatory and Other Authorizations; Notices and Consents. (a) Subject to the
other provisions of this Agreement (including the proviso in Section 5.7(a)), the parties hereto
shall cooperate with each other and use reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file all
necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, to obtain as
promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties
and Governmental Entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Transaction Agreements and to comply with the terms
and conditions of all such permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all such third
parties and Governmental Entities.

          (b) Each of the parties hereto shall, upon request, furnish each other with all information
concerning themselves, their Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders or other equity
holders (to the extent applicable) and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or
advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of
the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Purchaser to any Governmental Entity in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          (c) The parties hereto shall promptly advise each other upon receiving any communication from any
Governmental Entity whose consent or approval is required for consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement which causes such party to believe that there is a reasonable
likelihood that any Requisite Regulatory Approval will not be obtained or that the receipt of any
such approval will be materially delayed or conditioned.

     Section 5.10 Appointment of Directors. Prior to the Closing and effective as of the
Closing, the Company shall: (i) take all necessary action to cause the Board of Directors of each
of the Company and the Bank to be comprised of seven directors (or, in the case of the Board of

applicable stock exchange requirements) and two of the current directors of the Company and the
Bank that are selected by

Agreement, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser the Voting Agreement, signed by all directors of

the U.S. Treasury. The Company shall consult with Purchaser prior to commencing negotiations with
the U.S. Treasury regarding the exchange or redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock. In
addition, the Company shall keep Purchaser apprised of the status of discussions with the U.S.
Treasury and consult with and regularly seek the input of Purchaser regarding the terms of any

     Section 5.20 Payment to Cover Purchaser’s Expenses. As an inducement to Purchaser to enter
into this Agreement, within 10 days of the date of this Agreement, the Company shall make a payment

paid to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.20 shall be deemed earned by Purchaser upon payment
and shall in no event be required to be returned to the Company.

     Section 5.21 Agreement Regarding Purchaser’s Assumption of Certain Liabilities of the
Company. Prior to the Closing, Purchaser and the Company shall negotiate an assumption
agreement, which shall only become effective upon the Closing, pursuant to which Purchaser will
agree to assume the Company’s obligation to make severance payments under the employment agreements
listed on Section 5.21 of the Company Disclosure Schedule if the Company is prohibited from making
such payments by applicable banking rules and regulations at the time it becomes obligated to make
such payments; provided, that such assumption agreement shall provide that Purchaser shall not be
obligated to make such severance payments if prohibited from doing so by applicable banking rules
and regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, the assumption agreement shall not become effective
unless and until the Closing occurs, and in no event will Purchaser or any of its Affiliates have
any obligation of any kind under the assumption agreement if the Closing does not
occur.

true and correct, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (ii) the representations and warranties set forth
in (x) Section 3.2 and Section 3.4(a) shall be true and correct in all but de minimis respects and
(y) Section 3.8(i) shall be true and correct in all respects. For the avoidance of doubt, if the

venue of the Dane County Circuit Court, Wisconsin, and the courts hearing appeals therefrom, for
any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. Each of the Company and Purchaser irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and
agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any such
action, suit or proceeding, any claim that is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the
aforesaid courts for any reason, other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this
Section 8.3, that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or
from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise),
and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the action, suit or proceeding in any
such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such action, suit or proceeding
is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by
such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the
benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy, execution or collection of any
amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having

legal action or proceeding in relation to this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements and

     Section 8.4 Successors and Assigns; Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be
binding upon, the successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties
hereto. This Agreement may not be assigned by a party without the prior written consent of the
other party (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void and without effect),
except that so long as the Purchase Price is delivered at the Closing to the Company, Purchaser may
designate one or more additional persons to pay a portion of the Purchase Price and be issued a
corresponding number of shares of the Common Stock being issued and sold pursuant to this
Agreement, in amounts to be designated by Purchaser prior to the Closing; provided that the
addition of any such person will not delay the receipt of, extend the waiting period with respect
to, or invalidate a previously received Requisite Regulatory Approval. Except as otherwise
specifically provided in Section 8.12, this Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer upon
any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

     Section 8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto,
which constitute part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein), the other Transaction
Agreements and the Fee Agreement constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between
the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and no party shall be liable or bound to any other
in any manner by any representations, warranties, covenants and agreements except as specifically
set forth herein and therein. The Fee Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance
with its terms, but such letter agreement included in the Fee Agreement shall terminate upon the
termination of this Agreement, except with respect to fees and expenses accrued on or prior to the
date of such termination, with respect to which it shall survive until the payment or reimbursement
in full thereof. The Company agrees that any confidentiality agreements between Purchaser, Badger
Investment Partners, LLC, Badger Capital or any of their Affiliates shall be terminated effective
upon the Closing.

     Section 8.6 Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby so long as the economic or legal substance of the
transactions contemplated

36

 

hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that
any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto
shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby
are fulfilled to the extent possible.

     Section 8.7 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto (in
the case of the Company, by action taken by or on behalf of its Board of Directors) at any time
prior to the Closing, whether before or after receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approvals;
provided, however, that, after receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approvals, no amendment may be
made which under applicable Law requires the further approval of the shareholders of the Company
without such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing
signed by the parties hereto. At any time prior to the Closing, any party hereto may: (i) extend
the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto;
(ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any
document delivered pursuant hereto and
(iii) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or
conditions contained for the benefit of such party contained herein. Any such extension or waiver
shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound
thereby.

     Section 8.8 Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any
right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another
party under this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements shall impair any such right, power
or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance,
or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter
occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, by law,
or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified; (ii)

     1.3. Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. All exhibits and schedules attached hereto or
referenced herein, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement.

2. CREDIT FACILITIES.

     2.1. The Loans. Lender agrees to extend to Borrower a Term Loan in the aggregate principal
amount of $110 million in accordance with the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in,
this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. The entire principal amount of Term Loan
shall be borrowed on the Borrowing Date. The principal amount of the Term Loan shall bear interest
per annum at a rate equal to the greater of: (i) 6.50%; and (ii) LIBOR plus 500 basis points. The
unpaid principal balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest on Term Loan shall be due and payable
on (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) such earlier date on which such amount shall become due and payable
on account of acceleration by Lender in accordance with the terms of Note and this Agreement or
(iii) the date on which Lender converts Note into shares of Common Stock, as set forth in
Section 2.8.1.

     2.2. The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by Note.

     2.3. Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, all sums due and owing under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents with respect to the Loan shall be repaid in full, provided, however, that
Lender may elect to convert the outstanding principal and interest owed under the Note into shares
of Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.8. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender
has not made any commitments, either express or implied, to extend the terms of the Loan past its
Maturity Date, unless Borrower and Lender hereafter specifically otherwise agree in writing.

     2.4. Collateral. Borrower’s Liabilities shall be secured by the collateral pledged pursuant
to the Pledge Agreement.

     2.5. The Closing. The funding of the Loan (the “Closing”) will occur at the offices of
Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP, counsel to Lender, at 200 West Madison Street, Suite
3900, Chicago, Illinois at 9:30 a.m. on the date of Closing, or at such other place or time or on
such other date as the parties hereto may agree, by disbursing the proceeds of the Loan in
accordance with any Instructions received at least one Business Day prior to Closing.

     2.6. Interest Rates.

          2.6.1. Interest Rates. The amounts borrowed under the Note shall bear interest per annum as
set forth in Section 2.1. For purposes of determining the interest rate on the Note, LIBOR
shall be determined as of the first Business Day following an interest payment date and shall
continue until the next interest payment date; provided, however, that for the period between the
date on which the Disbursement is made and the first interest payment date, LIBOR shall be
determined as of the date on which the Disbursement is made.

          2.6.2. Interest Payments. Subject to Section 2.6.3 hereof, interest accrued on the
outstanding amount of each Loan shall be payable by Borrower in arrears on the last day of each
March, June, September and December (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on the first
such Interest Payment Date following the Closing and ended on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Borrower may, at its option, pay a portion of the interest payable on an Interest
Payment Date by issuing to Lender shares of Common Stock in lieu of cash, provided, however, that
at each Interest Payment Date Borrower shall pay an amount of interest payable in cash equal to or
greater than (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Loan multiplied by (ii) 5.00% (the “Cash
Interest Amount”). The amount of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date that may
be paid in shares of Common Stock in

7

 

lieu of cash shall equal (i) the total interest payment due and payable minus (ii) the Cash
Interest Amount (the “PIK Interest Amount”). If Borrower elects to pay a portion of the interest
payable on an Interest Payment Date through the issuance to Lender of shares of Common Stock, the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall equal (i) the PIK Interest Amount, divided by
(ii) the lowest of (A) $0.60 per share, (B) the per share tangible book value of Borrower,
determined in accordance with GAAP, as of the last day of the quarter ending on the relevant
Interest Payment Date and (C) the Market Price of Common Stock.

          2.6.3. Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest and the payment dates
specified in this Section 2.6, effective immediately upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, the principal balance of the Loan then outstanding and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments not paid within 10 days after the same
becomes due shall bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 300 basis points per annum
in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable pursuant to this Section 2.6 (the
“Default Rate”). In addition, all other amounts due Lender (whether directly or for reimbursement)
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, if not paid within five Business Days
after becoming due or, in the event no time period is expressed, if not paid within five Business
Days after written notice from Lender that the same has become due, shall thereafter bear interest
at the foregoing Default Rate. Finally, any amount due on a Maturity Date which is not then paid
shall also bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate.

          2.6.4. Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of 360 days. In
computing interest, the date of funding shall be included and the date of payment shall be
excluded; provided, however, that if any funding is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one
day’s interest shall be paid thereon. The parties hereto intend to conform strictly to applicable
usury laws as in effect from time to time during the terms of the Loan. Accordingly, if the
transaction contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the
United States of America, or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable),
then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Note,
Borrower and Lender agree that the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes interest under
applicable law that is contracted for, charged or received under or in connection with this
Agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable
law, and any excess shall be credited to Borrower by Lender (or if such consideration shall have
been paid in full, such excess refunded to Borrower by Lender).

     2.7. Payments.

          2.7.1. Prepayment. Prior to January 1, 2013, Borrower may not prepay any principal
amount outstanding under the Note. On or after January 1, 2013, Borrower may, upon at least ten
Business Day’s notice to Lender, prepay, without penalty, the aggregate principal amount
outstanding under the Note, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with unpaid
accrued interest thereon to but excluding the date of prepayment. This right to prepayment is
subject to Lender’s right to convert the principal amount outstanding under the Note into shares of
Common Stock as described in Section 2.8 hereof.

          2.7.2. Manner and Time of Payment. Except as set forth in Section 2.6.2, all payments
of principal, interest and fees hereunder payable to Lender shall be made, without condition or
reservation of right and free of set-off or counterclaim, in U.S. dollars and by wire transfer
(pursuant to Lender’s written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds delivered
to Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date due. Funds received by Lender after
that time and date shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

8

 

          2.7.3. Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder
shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, payments shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day and such extension of time (but not such next succeeding Business Day)
shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

          2.7.4. Application of Payments. All payments received by Lender from or on behalf of
Borrower shall first be applied to amounts due to Lender to pay Lender’s fees and reimburse
Lender’s costs and expenses, including those pursuant to Section 6.3 or 8.5 of this
Agreement, second to accrued interest under the Note, provided, however, that after the date on
which the final payment of principal with respect to the Loan is due or following and during any
Event of Default, all payments received on account of Borrower’s Liabilities shall be applied, in
whatever order, combination and amounts as Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, decides, to
all costs, expenses and other indebtedness owing to Lender. No amount paid on any of the Note may
be reborrowed.

     2.8. Conversion. At the sole election of Lender, Lender may at any time convert the
outstanding principal of the Note, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, into
shares of Common Stock (“Term Loan Converted Shares”). The number of Term Loan Converted Shares
shall equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the outstanding principal of Term Loan, together
with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price. For each fractional
share, cash will be paid in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the
fractional share by (B) the Conversion Price.

          2.8.1. Notice of Conversion. Lender shall provide Borrower written notice of its election
to convert a Note at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of conversion.

          2.8.2. Treatment of Interest. At the time of any conversion, all interest accrued but
unpaid to Lender through the date of conversion shall be due and payable to Lender on the date of
conversion.

     2.9. Loan Origination Fee. At the Closing, Borrower shall pay to Lender a one-time fee
equal to one-half percent (0.5%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans.

3. DISBURSEMENT.

     3.1. Disbursement. At such time as all of the terms and conditions set forth in Section
3.2 have been satisfied by Borrower and Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender each of
the Loan Documents and any other related documents in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, in
its sole and absolute discretion, Lender shall disburse to Borrower an amount equal to $110 million
(the “Disbursement”).

          3.1.1. Borrower Termination Right. Prior to any Disbursement of funds by Lender to Borrower
pursuant to Section 3.1, Borrower may terminate this Agreement by delivering to Lender (a)
a written notice of such termination and (b) a termination fee of $7.5 million.

          3.1.2. Certain Costs and Expenses. In the event Borrower fails to satisfy the disbursement
conditions or Borrower terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 3.2, Borrower
nevertheless shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the
transactions contemplated herein promptly upon receipt of an invoice from Lender, and this
Agreement shall terminate.

franchise and similar taxes in the State of Wisconsin, and in all of the jurisdictions in which it
is qualified to do business, and so far as such taxes are due and payable at the date of this

been duly authorized and validly issued, and is fully paid and nonassessable. Borrower owns
directly or indirectly all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of its Subsidiaries

12

 

indirectly to purchase or carry any security or reduce or retire any indebtedness originally
incurred to purchase any such security within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board; or (ii) so
as to involve Borrower in a violation of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB.

     4.5. Financial Statements. Borrower has delivered to Lender copies of its consolidated
financial statements, consisting of a balance sheet, statement of income and retained earnings and
statement of cash flows, as of and for the year ending March 31, 2009, and as of and for the six
months ending September 30, 2009, audited in the case of Borrower’s year end financial statements
by Borrower’s certified public accountants (the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements
are true and correct in all material respects, are in accordance with the respective books of
account and records of Borrower and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, or applicable
banking rules and regulations, as the case may be, applied on a basis consistent with prior
periods, and fairly and accurately present the consolidated financial condition of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and its and their respective assets and liabilities and results of operations as of
such date. The Financial Statements contain and reflect provisions for taxes, reserves and other

     4.6. Title to Properties.

          4.6.1. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable fee title to all real property, and
good and marketable title to all other property and assets reflected in the latest balance sheet
included as part of the Financial Statements or purported to have been acquired by Borrower or its
Subsidiaries subsequent to such date, except (a) real property and other assets acquired and/or
being acquired from debtors in full or partial satisfaction of obligations owed to Borrower or its
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (b) property or other assets leased by Borrower or its
Subsidiaries, and (c) property and assets sold or otherwise disposed of subsequent to the date of
such balance sheet. Except for properties and other assets acquired and/or being acquired from
debtors in full or partial satisfaction of obligations owed to Borrower or any Subsidiary and
properties or other assets leased by Borrower or any Subsidiary, and except as disclosed in the
Financial Statements, all material property and assets of any kind (real or personal, tangible or
intangible) of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are free from any material liens, encumbrances
or defects in title.

          4.6.2. Except as reflected in the Financial Statements, none of the assets or property the value of
which is reflected in the latest balance sheet that is included as part of the Financial Statements
is held by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as lessee under any lease, or as conditional vendee
under any conditional sales contract or other title retention agreement. Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession under all of the material leases under which
they are operating, all of which permit the customary operations of Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries. None of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in default and, to Borrower’s knowledge,
no event has occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
reasonably be expected to constitute a default under any such lease, except for any default or
potential default which would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole.

     4.7. Legal and Authorized. The borrowing of the maximum principal amounts of the Loans, the
execution and performance of this Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and compliance by Borrower with all of the provisions of this Agreement and of the other
Loan Documents are within the corporate powers of Borrower. Each of this Agreement, the Note, the
Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and
is the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, and is enforceable in accordance with its

13

 

respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other laws and subject to general principles of equity.

     4.8. No Defaults or Restrictions. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by
Borrower of any of the Loan Documents, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof or
thereof: (a) will contravene any provision of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or
any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality; (b) will
conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of,
or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to
create or impose) any lien upon any of the property or assets of Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement,
loan agreement or any other agreement, contract or instrument to which Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may
be subject; or (c) will violate any provision of the charter or bylaws of Borrower or the
organizational documents, charter or bylaws of any of its Subsidiaries, except in the case of (a),
(b) or (c), any such contravention, conflict, breach, default, lien or violation which would not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of
operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or which would not
prevent Borrower from fulfilling its obligations under the Loan Documents in any material respect.
Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in material default in the performance, observance
or fulfillment of any of the terms, obligations, covenants, conditions or provisions contained in
any indenture or other agreement creating, evidencing or securing indebtedness of any kind or
pursuant to which any such indebtedness is issued, or other agreement or instrument to which
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or
affected, which default would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole.

     4.9. Governmental Consent. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or
validation of, or filing, recording or registration with (except as have been obtained or made
prior to the date of this Agreement or pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement), or exemption by,
any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize,
or is required in connection with: (a) the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this
Agreement, the Note, the Pledge Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; or (b) the legality,
validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

     4.10. Taxes. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed and will continue to file all
tax returns required to be filed by it and has paid and will pay all income taxes payable by it
which have become due pursuant to such tax returns and all other taxes and assessments payable by
it which have become due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for those contested in
good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established. Each of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries has paid, or has provided adequate reserves (in the good faith judgment of the
management of Borrower) for the payment of, all federal and state income taxes applicable for all
prior fiscal years and for the current fiscal year to the date hereof. Borrower has no knowledge of
any audit, assessment or other proposed action or inquiry of the Internal Revenue Service or any
other taxing authority with respect to any tax liability of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

     4.11. Compliance with Law. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries is and will continue to be
in material compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable
material restrictions imposed by, all governmental bodies, domestic or foreign, in respect of the
conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (including applicable statutes,
regulations, orders and restrictions relating to environmental standards and controls), except such
noncompliance as would not,

14

 

in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations
or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

     4.12. Employee Benefit Plans. All employee benefit plans, as defined in Section 3(3) of
ERISA, established or maintained by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or to which any of them
contributes, are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable requirements of ERISA,
and are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable material requirements (including
qualification and non-discrimination requirements in effect) of the Code, for obtaining the tax
benefits the Code thereupon permits with respect to such employee benefit plans. For purposes of
this Section, non-compliance with the Code and ERISA is material if such non-compliance would
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of
operations or business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

     4.13. No Material Adverse Change. Except as listed on Schedule 4.13, Since March 31, 2009,
none of the business, operations, properties or assets of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole has been materially and adversely affected in any way as the result of any act or event,

Borrower and of each of its Subsidiaries) at such reasonable times and reasonable intervals as
Lender may designate, provided, however, that this right shall not be exercised more than four

Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the conversion of the Note or the payment of interest in
Common Stock to be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market, subject to official notice of
issuance (upon receipt of Shareholder Approval of such conversion), as promptly as practicable.

          5.2.15. Independent Loan Review. For each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter
ended March 31, 2010, Borrower shall engage an independent loan review firm acceptable to Lender to
conduct a review and analysis of Borrower’s loan portfolio. The results of such review and

Loan and Lease Losses as of the end of the applicable quarter.

21

     6.1. Compliance Certificate. Borrower shall furnish Lender, at the same time as the

certificate in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, which certificate shall state that
(a) Borrower is in compliance in all material respects with all covenants contained in this
Agreement, (b) that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, or, if there is any such
event, describing such event, the steps, if any, that are being taken to cure it, and the time
within which such cure will occur and (c) all representations and warranties made by Borrower
herein continue to be true as of the date of such certificate. Such quarterly compliance
certificate shall be signed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of Borrower and shall also
contain, in a form and with such specificity as is reasonably satisfactory to Lender, a computation
of the financial covenants set forth in Section 7 hereof and such additional information as
Lender shall have reasonably requested by Borrower prior to the submission thereof.

     6.2. Proceedings. Promptly after receiving knowledge thereof, notice in writing of all
charges, assessments, actions, suits and proceedings (as well as notice of the outcome of any such
charges, assessments, actions, suits and proceedings) that are initiated by, or brought before, any
court or Governmental Agency, in connection with Borrower or any Subsidiary, other than litigation
not involving the OTS, the FDIC or the FRB, which, if adversely decided, would not have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or business of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     6.3. Lender Expenses. Whether or not any Loan is made, Borrower will (a) pay all reasonable

or the enforcement of this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, Lender’s out-of-pocket expenses and the charges and disbursements to counsel retained
by Lender, and (b) pay and save Lender and all other holders of the Note 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 Note or the
other Loan Documents or any modification, amendment or alteration of the terms or provisions of
this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, other than income taxes, (ii) any interest or
penalties resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of such expenses, charges, disbursements,
liabilities or taxes, and (iii) any income taxes in respect of any reimbursement by Borrower for any of such violations,
taxes, interests or penalties paid by Lender. The obligations of Borrower under this Section
6.3 shall survive the repayment in full of the Note, the conversion of the Note or the
termination of this Agreement. Any of the foregoing amounts incurred by Lender and not paid by
Borrower within ten days after demand for payment shall bear interest from the date incurred at the
rate equal to 18.00% per annum and shall be deemed part of Borrower’s Liabilities hereunder.

Bank’s compliance with the covenants in Section 7.1 and Section 7.4. The covenant
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 7.3 shall be calculated
quarterly beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

period thereafter, Borrower shall cause Bank to maintain, on an annualized basis, a return on
Average Total Assets of not less than 0.65%. The covenant set forth in this Section 7.4
shall be calculated quarterly beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2010, shall be derived
from the quarterly report filed by Bank with its primary federal regulator and shall be consistent
with the financial information and reports contemplated in Section 5.2.5; provided,
however, that in computing Bank’s return on Average Total Assets for any given quarter, Bank shall
adjust the net income reported in the applicable quarterly report to reflect the amount of net
income that would have been reported if Bank had used the Pro Forma Reserve for Loan and Lease
Losses instead of the actual Reserve for Loan and Lease Losses to prepare such quarterly report.

     7.5. Additional Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the
meanings set forth below:

          7.5.1.

be determined in accordance with, the rules and regulations of Bank’s primary federal regulator.

estate owned and repossessed assets, non-accrual loans, restructured loans and loans on which any
payment is 90 or more days past due but which continue to accrue interest.

          7.5.3. “Pro Forma Reserve for Loan and Lease Losses” shall mean the greater of: (i) the Reserve for
Loan and Lease Losses; and (ii) the sum of (1) 50% of Nonperforming Assets and
(2) 1.20% of the Total Loans Outstanding.

quarterly report filed by Bank with its primary federal regulator, which shall be consistent with

any other term, condition or covenant contained in any agreement (including, without limitation, an

waived, anything contained herein or in the Note to the contrary notwithstanding;

               8.1.2.2. Terminate Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to extend credit of any kind or

of its representatives, which was taken, omitted or made in good faith, other than any loss,
damage, injury, cost or expense arising by reason of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
Lender or any of its Affiliates.

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

expenses, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
or other related documents.

9. MISCELLANEOUS.

     9.1. Release; Indemnification. Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all causes of
action, claims or rights which Borrower may now or hereafter have for, or which may arise from, any
loss or damage caused by or resulting from (a) any failure of Lender to protect, enforce or collect
in whole or in part any of the Collateral and (b) any other act or omission to act on the part of
Lender, its officers, agents or employees, except in each instance for willful misconduct or gross
negligence, and except for any breach by Lender of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender and its Affiliates harmless from and against any
and all losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, claims, fines, demands, litigation, defenses,
costs, judgments, suits, proceedings, actual damages, disbursements or expenses of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) which may at any
time be either directly or indirectly imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against
Lender or any of Lender’s Affiliates in connection with, arising from or relating to Lender’s
entering into or carrying out the terms of this Agreement or being the holder of the Note, other
than any loss, liability, damage, suit, claim, expense, fees or costs arising solely by reason of
Lender’s or any of Lender’s Affiliates’ willful misconduct or gross negligence. This section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.

     9.2. Assignment and Participation. Lender may pledge or otherwise hypothecate all or any
portion of this Agreement or grant participations herein (provided Lender acts as agent for any
participants, except as provided below) or in any of its rights and security hereunder, including,
without limitation, the Note. Lender may also assign all or any part of the Loan and Lender’s
obligations in connection therewith to one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions
or investors with the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (each
an “Assignee

27

 

Lender”). Lender shall notify Borrower in advance of the identity of any proposed Assignee Lender.
Upon delivery to Borrower of an executed copy of the Assignee Lender’s assignment and acceptance
(a) each such Assignee Lender shall be deemed to be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights
and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee Lender, such Assignee
Lender shall have the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
and other related documents (b) Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have
been assigned and delegated by it, shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the obligation to fund the Assignee Lender’s
share of the Loans) and other related documents, except for any liability from actions or omissions
of Lender occurring prior to such assignment. Within five Business Days after receipt of a copy of
the executed assignment and acceptance document, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a new
Note or Notes, as applicable (for delivery to the relevant Assignee Lender), evidencing such
Assignee Lender’s assigned portion of the Loans and a replacement Note or Notes, as applicable, in
the principal amount of the Loans retained by Lender (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in
payment of, the Note then held by Lender). Such Note shall be dated the date of the predecessor
Note. Lender shall mark the predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver it to Borrower. Accrued
interest on that part of the predecessor Note evidenced by the new Note, and accrued fees, shall be
paid as provided in the assignment agreement between Lender and to the Assignee Lender. Accrued
interest on that part of the predecessor Note evidenced by the replacement Note shall be paid to
Lender. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be so apportioned between the Notes and paid at the
same time or times provided in the predecessor Note and in this Agreement. Borrower authorizes
Lender to disclose to any prospective Assignee Lender any financial or other information pertaining
to Borrower or the Loans, provided that such prospective Assignee Lender agrees in writing not to
disclose such information to any other Person, except as required by law or regulation or as agreed
to by Borrower. In addition, Borrower agrees that, if so requested by Lender, Borrower will cause
all insurance policies, binders and commitments (including, without limitation, casualty insurance
and title insurance) required by the Loan Documents or other related documents to be delivered to
Lender to name the Assignee Lender as an additional insured or obligee, as Lender may request.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any
of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section 9.2,
Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights
under all or any of the Loan Documents and other related documents to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release Lender from its obligations thereunder.

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

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

     9.5. No Waiver. No waiver of any term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement herein
contained shall be effective unless set forth in a writing signed by Lender, and any such waiver
shall be effective only to the extent set forth in such writing. No failure to exercise or delay in
exercising, by Lender or any holder of the Note, of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or
remedy provided by law. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not
exclusive of any right or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice or demand on Borrower in any
case shall, in itself, entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to any other or further action
in any circumstances without notice or demand. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by
Lender to or of any breach or default by Borrower in the performance of its obligations hereunder
shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the
performance of the same or any other obligations of Borrower hereunder.

28

 

Failure on the part of Lender to complain of any acts or failure to act or to declare an Event of
Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by Lender
of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies on account of any breach or
default by Borrower.

     9.6. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is unenforceable or invalid or
contrary to law, or the inclusion of which would adversely affect the validity, legality or
enforcement of this Agreement, shall be of no effect and, in such case, all the remaining terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall subsist and be fully effective according to the tenor of this
Agreement the same as though any such invalid portion had never been included herein.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if any provisions of this Agreement or the
application thereof are held invalid or unenforceable only as to particular persons or situations,
the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to persons or situations
other than those to which it shall have been held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected
thereby, but shall continue valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     9.7. Usury; Revival of Liabilities. All agreements between Borrower and Lender (including,
without limitation, this Agreement and any other Loan Documents) are expressly limited so that in
no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender exceed the highest lawful
rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois. If, from any circumstances
whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other Loan Documents, at the time
performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of validity
prescribed by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso
facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest
permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois, and if for any reason whatsoever, Lender shall
ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such interest shall be applied
to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments of the indebtedness secured by the
Collateral (whether or not then due and payable) and not to the payment of interest. To the extent
that Lender received any payment on account of Borrower’s Liabilities and any such payment(s)
and/or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside, subordinated and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any
other Person under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to
the extent of such payment(s) or proceeds received, Borrower’s Liabilities or part thereof intended
to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment(s)
and/or proceeds had not been received by Lender and applied on account of Borrower’s Liabilities;
provided, however, if Lender successfully contests any such invalidation, declaration, set aside,
subordination or other order to pay any such payment and/or proceeds to any third party, the
revived Borrower’s Liabilities shall be deemed satisfied.

     9.8. Notices. Any notice which either party hereto may be required or may desire to give
hereunder shall be deemed to have been given if in writing and if delivered personally, or if
mailed, postage prepaid, by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,

     9.9. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties and
their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns except that, unless Lender
consents in writing, no assignment made by Borrower in violation of this Agreement shall confer any
rights on any assignee of Borrower.

attorneys’ fees and expenses), consequential or otherwise, which may at any time be either directly
or indirectly imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against Lender or any of its
Affiliates in connection with, arising out of or relating to any claim of a broker’s or finder’s
fee against Lender or any Person in connection with the transaction herein contemplated arising out

Documents.

     9.16. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the internal laws of the State of Illinois. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit any rights,
powers or privileges which Lender may have pursuant to any law of the United States of America or
any rule, regulation or order of any department or agency thereof and nothing herein shall be

deemed to mean the best knowledge of such party based on commercially reasonable inquiry. All
references herein to Borrower’s knowledge shall be deemed to refer to the knowledge of Borrower and

	$110,000,00

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, ANCHOR BANCORP WISCONSIN INC., a Wisconsin corporation
(“Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of BADGER ANCHOR HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, or the holder hereof from time to time (“Lender”), at such place as may be
designated in writing by Lender, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED TEN MILLION DOLLARS
($110,000,000), with interest thereon as hereinafter provided. This note (this “Note”) is issued
pursuant to the terms of a Loan Agreement of even date herewith by and between Borrower and Lender,
as amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”). All
capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them
in the Loan Agreement.

     Interest shall accrue on all sums as advanced and outstanding from time to time under this Note and
Loan Agreement as set forth in the Loan Agreement, and such interest shall be due and payable on
the last day of each March, June, September and December as set forth in the Loan Agreement,
commencing on the first such date following the Closing. All sums owing hereunder are payable in
lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds; provided, however,
that a portion of each interest payment may be paid in shares of Borrower common stock as set forth
in the Loan Agreement.

     The outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest,
shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Additional principal payments shall be made in
accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement.

     This Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

     This Note is issued pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and is secured by and entitled to
the benefits of, among other things, the Term Collateral Documents. In case an Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Note together with all accrued interest
thereon may, at the option of the holder hereof, immediately become due and payable on demand;
provided, however, that if any document related to this Note provides for automatic acceleration of
payment of sums owing hereunder, all sums owing hereunder shall be automatically due and payable in
accordance with the terms of that document.

     Unless otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, all payments on account of the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note shall be first applied to the payment of costs and expenses of Lender which
are due and payable, then to past-due interest on the unpaid principal balance and the remainder to
principal.

     If any interest payment required hereunder is not received by Lender on or before the tenth day
following the date it becomes due, Borrower shall pay, at Lender’s option, a late or collection
charge equal to 5.00% of the amount of such unpaid interest payment.

     From and after the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as all sums owing on this Note become due
and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, interest
shall be computed on all amounts then due and payable under this Note at a “Default Rate” equal to
300 basis points per annum (based on a 360-day year and charged on the basis of actual days
elapsed) in excess of the interest rate otherwise accruing under this Note.

A-1

 

     If any attorney is engaged by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of this Note or any of the
other Loan Documents, or as a consequence of any Event of Default, with or without the filing of
any legal action or proceeding, then Borrower shall pay to Lender immediately upon demand all
attorneys’ fees and expenses, together with interest thereon from the date of such demand until
paid at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance owing hereunder as if such unpaid
attorneys’ fees and expenses had been added to the principal.

     No previous waiver and no failure or delay by Lender or Borrower in acting with respect to the
terms of this Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall constitute a waiver of any breach,
default or failure of condition under this Note, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or the obligations secured thereby. A waiver of any term of this Note or any of the other
Loan Documents or of any of the obligations secured thereby must be made in writing and shall be
limited to the express written terms of such waiver. In the event of any inconsistencies between
the terms of this Note and the terms of any other document related to the Loan evidenced by this
Note, the terms of this Note shall prevail.

     Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, Borrower expressly waives presentment, demand,
notice of dishonor, notice of default or delinquency, notice of acceleration, notice of protest and
nonpayment, notice of costs, expenses or losses and interest thereon, notice of late charges, and
diligence in taking any action to collect any sums owing under this Note or in proceeding against
any of the rights or interests in or to properties securing payment of this Note. In addition,
Borrower expressly agrees that this Note and any payment coming due hereunder may be extended from
time to time without in any way affecting the liability of any such party hereunder.

     Time is of the essence with respect to every provision hereof. This Note shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, except to the extent that federal
laws preempt the laws of the State of Illinois, and all persons and entities in any manner
obligated under this Note consent to the jurisdiction of any Federal or State court within the
State of Illinois having proper venue and also consent to service of process by any means
authorized by Illinois or Federal law. Any reference contained herein to attorneys’ fees and
expenses shall be deemed to be to reasonable fees and expenses and to include all reasonable fees
and expenses of third-party attorneys and the reasonable fees and expenses of any other experts or
consultants.

     All agreements between Borrower and Lender (including, without limitation, this Note and the Loan
Agreement, and any other documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby)
are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to
Lender exceed the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under applicable law. If, from any
circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, the Loan Agreement or any other
documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby at the time performance of
such provisions shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law which
a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to
be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under such
applicable laws, and if, for any reason whatsoever, Lender shall ever receive as interest an amount
which would be deemed unlawful under such applicable law, such interest shall be automatically
applied to the payment of the principal of this Note (whether or not then due and payable) and not
to the payment of interest or refunded to Borrower if such principal has been paid in full.

     Any notice which either party hereto may be required or may desire to give hereunder shall be
governed by the notice provisions of the Loan Agreement.
