KANBAY
INTERNATIONAL, INC.

2005 GLOBAL LEADERSHIP BONUS PLAN

Kanbay International, Inc. (the “Company”) has
adopted the Kanbay
International, Inc. 2005 Global Leadership Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) to provide
for the payment of performance bonuses to certain global leadership executives
of the Company and its Affiliates in consideration of their efforts during the
2005 fiscal year (January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005).  The purpose of the Plan is to align the goals
of those Executives participating in the Plan with the business goals and
objectives of the Company, to provide these Executives with financial
incentives to attain those goals and objectives and to reward these Executives
for meeting their Performance Targets.

1.             DEFINITIONS

For
purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall have the following definitions:

1.1           “Affiliate” means any corporation or
other business entity, or predecessor of such entity, if any, that is a parent
or subsidiary of the Company, including ownership of 50% or more of the voting
or profits interests of the corporation or other business entity.

1.2           “Base Salary” means an Executive’s
annual base salary rate for the 2005 fiscal year.

1.3           “Board” means the Board of Directors
of the Company.

1.4           “Bonus Schedule” means the bonus
acknowledgement schedule provided to an Executive that sets forth the
Performance Bonus that the Executive is eligible to earn under the Plan and the
Performance Targets applicable to such Performance Bonus.

1.5           “Cause” has the meaning set forth in any
employment, consulting, or other written agreement between the Executive and
the Company or an Affiliate.  If there is
no employment, consulting, or other written agreement between the Executive and
the Company or an Affiliate, or if such agreement does not define “Cause,” then
“Cause” will have the meaning specified by the Committee in connection with the
grant of any Performance Bonus; provided, that if the Committee does not so
specify, “Cause” will mean the Executive’s:

(a)           willful neglect of or continued
failure to substantially perform, in any material respect, his or her duties
(as assigned to the Executive from time to time) or obligations (including a
violation of policy) to the Company or an Affiliate other than any such failure
resulting from his or her incapacity due to physical or mental illness;

(b)           commission of a willful act
(including, without limitation, a dishonest or fraudulent act) or a grossly
negligent act, or the willful or grossly negligent omission to act that is
intended to cause, causes or is reasonably likely to cause material harm to the
Company or an Affiliate, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise;

(c)           commission or conviction of, or plea
of nolo contendere to, any felony
or any crime or offense involving dishonesty or fraud or that is significantly
injurious to the Company or an Affiliate, monetarily, reputationally or
otherwise; or

 

 

(d)           abuse of illegal drugs or other
controlled substances or habitual intoxication.

Unless
otherwise defined in the Executive’s employment or other agreement, an act or
omission is “willful” for this purpose if it was knowingly done, or knowingly
omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable
belief that the act or omission was in the best interest of the Company.  The Committee has the discretion, in other
circumstances, to determine in good faith, from all the facts and circumstances
reasonably available to it, whether an Executive who is under investigation
for, or has been charged with, a crime will be deemed to have committed it for
purposes of this Plan.

1.6           “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any one or more of the
following:

(a)           Any “person” (as such term is defined
in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”) and as used in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act),
including a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other
than (i) the Company, (ii) any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or (iii)
any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the
Company or any Affiliate, becomes a “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Company having fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the
then-outstanding securities of the Company that may be cast for the election of
directors of the Company (other than as a result of an issuance of securities
initiated by the Company in the ordinary course of business) (the “Company
Voting Securities”); provided, however, that the event described in this
Section 1.6(a) shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control by virtue of any
underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such
securities;

(b)           During any period of two consecutive
years, individuals who at the beginning of any such period constitute the Board
(the “Incumbent Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board, unless the election, or the nomination for election by
the stockholders of the Company, of each new director of the Company during
such period was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent
Directors then still in office;

(c)           As the result of, or in connection
with, any cash tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination,
sale of all or substantially all of the assets or contested election, or any
combination of the foregoing transactions, less than a majority of the combined
voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the Company or any successor
corporation or entity entitled to vote generally in the election of the
directors of the Company or such other corporation or entity after such
transaction is held in the aggregate by the holders of the securities of the
Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the Company
immediately prior to such transaction; or

(d)           The stockholders of the Company
approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company.

 

2

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because
any person acquires beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of
the Company Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Company Voting
Securities by the Company which reduces the number of Company Voting Securities
outstanding; provided, however, that if after such acquisition by the Company
such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional Company Voting
Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding Company Voting
Securities beneficially owned by such person, a Change in Control transaction
shall then occur.

Further
notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a majority of the Incumbent
Directors determines otherwise, no Change in Control shall be deemed to have
occurred with respect to a particular Executive if the Change in Control
results from actions or events in which such Executive is a participant in a
capacity other than solely as an officer, employee or director of the Company
or an Affiliate.

1.7           “Committee” means the Compensation
Committee of the Board that is responsible for setting Performance Targets,
certifying that such targets have been met under the Plan and the
administration of the Plan.

1.8           “Company” means Kanbay International,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, and any successor thereto.

1.9           “Disability” has the meaning set
forth in any employment, consulting, or other written agreement between the
Executive and the Company or an Affiliate. 
If there is no employment, consulting, or other written agreement
between the Executive and the Company or an Affiliate, or if such agreement
does not define “Disability,” then “Disability” will mean (a) long-term
disability as defined under the long-term disability plan of the Company or an
Affiliate that covers that Executive, (b) if the Executive is not covered by
such a long-term disability plan, disability as defined for purposes of
eligibility for a disability award under the U.S. Social Security Act, or (c)
if the Executive is not covered by a long-term disability plan or the U.S.
Social Security Act, the Committee shall determine whether the Executive has
incurred a Disability, in its sole discretion.

1.10         “Executive” means the global leadership
executive selected by the Committee to participate in this Plan.

1.11         “Performance Bonus” means the
additional cash remuneration payable to an Executive pursuant to the Plan.

1.12         “Performance Period” means the annual
or quarterly period set forth in the applicable Bonus Schedule.

1.13         “Performance Target” means any annual
or quarterly quantitative objective or measurement (including any individual,
organizational or company-wide goal) that is appropriate and relevant to the
Executive for the Performance Period, as determined by the Committee and set
forth in the Bonus Schedule.  Performance
Targets referring to global objectives will include performance metrics for the
Company and all Affiliates.  Performance
Targets referring to regional or territory objectives will include performance
metrics for the Company or its

operate in that region or territory.

(i)            cash flow, including operating cash

2.             ELIGIBILITY

Each
Executive who participates in this Plan will receive a Bonus Schedule that sets
forth the maximum Performance Bonus, expressed as a percentage of Executive’s
Base Salary, that he or she will be eligible to earn under the Plan.  The Bonus Schedule also will set forth the
Performance Targets that have been established by the Committee and that must
be satisfied in order for the Executive to receive his or her Performance
Bonus.  An Executive is not eligible to
receive any Performance Bonus under the Plan unless it is specifically
mentioned in the Bonus Schedule.  Each
Executive must return to the Committee an executed copy of the Bonus Schedule
to be eligible for Performance Bonuses under this Plan.

3.             PERFORMANCE BONUSES

3.1           Amount of Performance Bonus.  The actual amount of the Performance Bonus
that an Executive receives will be based upon the attainment of the Performance
Targets set forth

4

 

in the Bonus
Schedule.  If a Performance Target is not
fully and completely achieved during the relevant Performance Period, then the
applicable Performance Bonus shall not be earned or paid.

3.2           Requirements for Payment of
Performance Bonus.  An Executive will
be entitled to receive payment of the Performance Bonus for a Performance
Period only if the Executive is employed by the Company or one of its
Affiliates on the date that the Company (or Affiliate) pays the Performance
Bonus for that Performance Period. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided that all other terms and
conditions of the Plan have been satisfied:

(a)           if the Executive’s employment is
terminated after completion of the Performance Period due to death, Disability
or involuntary termination without Cause, the Executive will be paid for any Performance
Bonus he or she would have been paid had he or she been employed on the date
that the Company (or Affiliate) pays the Performance Bonus for that Performance
Period.

(b)           if the Executive’s employment is
terminated during a Performance Period due to death or Disability, the
Executive will be paid a portion of the Performance Bonus he or she would have
been paid had he or she been employed on the date that the Company (or
Affiliate) pays the Performance Bonus for that Performance Period, pro rated based
on the number of days elapsed during the Performance Period before the
Executive’s employment was terminated.

(c)           if the Executive’s employment is
involuntarily terminated by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause during a
Performance Period, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may decide to pay
the Executive a portion of the Performance Bonus he or she would have been paid
had he or she been employed on the date that the Company (or Affiliate) pays
the Performance Bonus for that Performance Period, pro rated based on the
number of days elapsed during the Performance Period before the Executive’s
employment was terminated.

3.3           Time and Medium of Payment.  An Executive’s earned Performance Bonus will
be paid in a lump sum no later than 90 days after the end of the 2005 fiscal
year.  The Committee, in its discretion,
may pay part or all of an Executive’s earned Performance Bonus in shares of the
Company’s common stock.

3.4           Committee Certification.  The Committee shall certify in writing, prior
to payment of any Performance Bonus hereunder to an Executive, that the
Performance Targets and any other material terms of the Plan were satisfied.

3.5           Change in Control.  If a Change in Control occurs and thereafter
the Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated without Cause by the
Company or an Affiliate within the same fiscal year, the Executive will be paid
the Executive’s target bonus amount for all Performance Periods ending in the
year in which the Change in Control and termination occurred, as specified on
the Bonus Schedule, as if the Performance Targets had been met in full, and the
Executive had been employed on the date that the Performance Bonus was to be
paid.  Payment will be made within thirty
days of the Executive’s termination.

4.             GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

4.1           Administration by the Committee.  The Committee will administer the Plan in
accordance with its terms, and will have all powers necessary to carry out the
Plan’s provisions.  The Committee has
full discretion to, and will, interpret the Plan and determine all questions
arising in its administration, interpretation and application, including but
not limited to questions of eligibility and the status and rights of Executives
and other persons.  Any determination by
the Committee will be conclusive and binding on all persons.  The Committee may delegate to the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer some or all of its authority under the Plan, including
the responsibility for setting Performance Targets (other than with respect to
himself), certifying whether such Performance Targets have been met under the
Plan, setting Performance Periods, selecting eligible executives, and
administering the Plan.

4.2           No Assurance of Employment or
Payment.  Participation in the Plan
does not guarantee or imply continued employment.  Except as required by applicable law, nothing
in this Plan or any Executive’s Bonus Schedule is intended to create an
employment agreement with an Executive. 
By participating in this Plan, the Executive agrees that his or her
employment is “at-will”, and the Executive or the Company (or the Affiliate
that employs the Executive) may terminate the employment relationship at any
time for any reason or no reason. 
Furthermore, participation in the Plan does not guarantee payment of any
Performance Bonus amount.

4.3           Non-Payment or Recovery.  The Company or Affiliate may refuse to pay a
Performance Bonus or may recover a Performance Bonus previously paid if an
error in the calculation of a Performance Bonus has resulted in an overpayment
to an Executive.  If an erroneous
Performance Bonus payment is to be recovered, the Executive agrees to remit
payment to the Company or the Affiliate the full amount of the monies being
recovered within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of notice from the
Company.  Recovery may be made by the
Company or an Affiliate at any time during and after the Executive’s employment
until the outstanding balance is satisfied in full.  This Section 4.3 shall continue to be in
effect after the expiration of this Plan and/or the expiration or termination
of the Executive’s employment with the Company or its Affiliates.

4.4           Amendment or Termination.  The Company reserves the right to amend or
terminate the Plan at any time.  Any such
amendment or termination will be made pursuant to a resolution of the Board.

4.5           Complete Agreement.  The terms and
conditions this Plan, together with the applicable Executive’s Bonus Schedule,
constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the understanding between
the Company, its Affiliates, and each Executive, which supersedes and excludes
all prior or contemporaneous proposals, understandings, agreements or
representations, oral or written, between the Company, its Affiliates, and each
Executive, with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
If there is any conflict between the terms of the applicable Bonus
Schedule and this Plan document, the terms of this Plan document will control.

4.6           Applicable Law.  Except to the extent preempted by federal
law, the Plan will be construed and administered under the laws of the State of
Illinois, without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles.

6

 

4.7           Withholding.  The Company or an Affiliate may withhold from
any payment that it is required to make under the Plan amounts sufficient to
satisfy applicable withholding requirements under any federal, state or local
law.

Executive=s designated beneficiary, or in the absence of a designated

Split Dollar Agreement and Deferred Compensation Agreement between Executive
and TeamBank, N. A. then in existence. 
In the event the total amount paid to the beneficiaries or the estate of
Executive is less than $500,000.00, Company shall pay to the designated
beneficiary of Executive, or in the absence of a designated beneficiary, to the
estate of Executive, as soon as reasonably practical, a sum equal to the
difference between the total amount paid under the Split Dollar Agreement and
$500,000.00.  Under this section it is
the intent of the Company and Executive that the Executive=s beneficiary, or in the absence of a

benefits shall not be less than $500,000.00. Company may purchase life
insurance to cover all or any part of its obligations contained in this

months, over a period of twelve (12) consecutive months.  Executive’s dependents will also be entitled
to:

(i)            All Company insured and self insured medical
and dental plans in which Executive was participating immediately prior to

participation is not possible under the general terms and conditions of such
plans or under such policies, Company shall, in lieu of the foregoing, arrange
to have issued for the benefit of Executive’s dependents equivalent benefits
(on an after-tax basis); provided, further that, in no event shall Executive’s
dependents be required to pay any premiums or other charges in an amount
greater than that which Executive would have paid in order to participate in

10.2         For the purposes of this Agreement, Executive
shall be deemed to have become disabled, if, during any year of the term of
this Agreement, because of ill health, physical or mental impairment, or for
other causes beyond Executive’s control, Executive shall have been continuously
unable or unwilling, or shall have failed to perform his duties under this
Agreement for ninety (90) consecutive days, or if, during any calendar year of
the term of this Agreement, Executive shall have been unable or unwilling or
shall have failed to perform his duties for a total period of one hundred
eighty (180) days, irrespective of whether or not such days are
consecutive.  With respect to any termination
by Company for disability, the specifics of the basis of termination shall be
communicated to Executive in writing at least thirty (30) days before the date
on which the termination is proposed to take effect.  Executive shall have until the effective date
of the notice to cure or remedy such disability and or correct the
misconception of the disability.  If this
Agreement is terminated for disability, any questions as to the existence of
the Total and Permanent disability of Executive as to which Executive and
Company cannot agree shall be determined in writing by a qualified independent
physician mutually acceptable to Executive and Company.  If Executive and Company cannot agree as to a
qualified independent physician, each shall appoint such a physician and those
two physicians shall select a third who shall make such determination in
writing.  If there is a disagreement
between Executive and Company as to the disability of Executive, the effective
date of the termination will be extended a reasonable time to allow for a
determination by a physical, as described above.  Any refusal by Executive to submit to a
medical examination for the purpose of certifying disability under this section
shall be deemed to constitute conclusive evidence of Executive’s
disability.  If Executive is disabled
before his employment with Company is otherwise terminated, Company shall
continue to pay the current annual base salary for three years to the
Executive, or if the Executive is totally incapacitated, to his appointed
guardian, at the time he is determined to be disabled.  Whenever compensation is payable to Executive
hereunder, during a time when he is disabled, pursuant to the terms of any
insurance provided by Company, the compensation payable to him hereunder shall
be inclusive of any such disability insurance and shall not be in addition
thereto.  If this agreement is terminated
for disability Executive shall also be entitled to:

 

(i)            All Company insured and self insured medical
and dental plans in which Executive was participating immediately prior to
termination paid for by the company for a period of one year provided, further

charges in an amount greater than that which Executive would have paid in order
to participate in Company’s plans and policies..

of Company then in effect for Executive, and the life insurance contained

which Executive would have paid in order to participate in Company’s plans and
policies.

(iii)          All such Bonuses and Other Compensation as
provided for in Section 8 above, it being understood, however, that all such
payments due, if made pursuant to this clause shall be paid in cash within

All stock options granted by Company to Executive under any provision of
Section 8 or granted by Company to Executive prior to the date hereof will
accelerate and become immediately exercisable;

(iv)          Company shall pay Executive a sum to pay for
a Country Club membership dues for one (1) year;

the personal car, furnished Executive by Company, in use at the time of the
termination.

 

10.3         For purposes of this Agreement, material breach and good cause shall
mean willful misconduct in following the legitimate directions of the
compensation committee of the Board of Directors; commission of a significant
act of dishonesty, deceit or breach of fiduciary duty in the performance of
Executive’s duties; gross misappropriation of Company funds or property;
habitual drunkenness; excessive absenteeism not related to illness, sick leave
or vacations.  Provided, however,
Executive shall be entitled to notice of any acts which the Board considers to
be misconduct or excessive absenteeism as described in this paragraph.  Such notice shall include the specifics of
the basis for possible termination and shall be communicated to Executive in
writing at least thirty (30) days prior to any such intended termination.  Prior to any such termination, if requested
before the effective date of

 

7

 

the
intended termination, Executive shall be given a reasonable period of time in
which to show that he has corrected any specified deficiencies.  Upon the cure or remedy of such deficiencies,
the Company shall rescind its notice of termination.  If there is any question about the effective
correction of the deficiencies, a decision will be sought from a lawyer agreed
to by Company and Executive.  If the
Company and Executive cannot agree on a lawyer, each will pick a lawyer who will
together pick a lawyer who will render a decision.

 

If
this agreement is terminated for material breach or good cause, Executive shall
be entitled to:

fax for outgoing and incoming faxes; computer, software, and printer.  All of the above will be equivalent to what
Executive was using at the time of termination.

(iv)          All such Bonuses and Other Compensation as
provided for in Section 8 above, it being understood, however, that all such
payments due, if made pursuant to this clause shall be paid in cash within
thirty (30) days of the date of termination. 
All stock options granted by Company to Executive under any provision of
Section 8 or granted by Company to Executive prior to the date hereof will
accelerate and become immediately exercisable;

(v)           A sum as reimbursement for reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred for third-party professional financial and tax
advice provided by a licensed professional of Executive’s choice for a period
of three (3) years after the date of termination, sum not to exceed, in any one
year, twenty-five percent (25%) and in the aggregate, seventy-five percent
(75%) of Executive’s base salary, as provided in Section 8;

(vi)          A sum as reimbursement for reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred for out-placement advice and counseling
provided by a professional placement agency and/or recruiter of Executive’s
choice for a period of twelve (12) months after date of termination, sum not to
exceed fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s base salary, as provided in Section
8;

(vii)         Company shall pay Executive a sum to pay for
a Country Club membership dues for one (1) year;

(viii)        Company shall transfer to Executive title of

12.                               Consequences of Breach

 

12.0         If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
Section 11.01 hereof, or if Company shall terminate Executive’s employment
under this Agreement in any other way that is a breach of this Agreement by
Company, the following shall apply:

(i)            The parties believe that because of the
limitations of Section 11 the payments to Executive do not constitute “Excess
Parachute Payments” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as
amended (the “Code”).  Notwithstanding
such belief, if any benefit under the preceding paragraph is determined to be
an “Excess Parachute Payment” Company shall pay Executive an additional amount
(“Tax Payment”) such that (x) the excess of all Excess Parachute Payments
(including payments under this sentence) over the sum of excise tax thereon

 

11

 

under
Section 4999 of the Code and income tax thereon under Subtitle A of the Code
and under applicable state law is equal to (y) the excess of all Excess
Parachute Payments (excluding payments under this sentence) over income tax
thereon under Subtitle A of the Code and under applicable state law.

 

13.                               Mitigation and Offset

 

13.0         Executive shall not be required to mitigate
the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking employment
or otherwise, nor to offset the amount of any payment provided for in this
Agreement by amounts earned as a result of Executive’s employment or
self-employment during the period he is entitled to such payment.

 

14.                               Tax “Gross-Up” Provision

 

14.0         If any payment due Executive under this
Agreement results in Executive’s liability for an excise tax (“parachute tax”)
under Section 49 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
the Company will pay to Executive, after deducting any Federal, state or local
income tax imposed on the payment, an amount sufficient to fully satisfy the “parachute
tax” liability.  Such payment shall be
made to Executive no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date of the “parachute
tax”.

 

15.                               Remedies

 

15.0         Company recognizes that because of Executive’s
special talents, stature and opportunities in the financial services industry,
in the event of termination by Company hereunder (except under Section 10.0),
or in the event of termination by Executive under Section 11, before the end of
the agreed term, Company acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this
Agreement regarding further payments of base salary, bonuses and the
exerciseability of stock options constitute fair and reasonable provisions for
the consequences of such termination, do not constitute a penalty, and such
payments and benefits shall not be limited or reduced by amounts Executive
might earn or be able to earn from any other employment or ventures during the
remainder of the agreed term of this Agreement.

 

16.                               Binding Agreement

 

16.0         This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of Executive, his heirs, distributes and assigns and
company, its successors and assigns. 
Executive may not, without the express written permission of the
Company, assign or pledge any rights or obligations hereunder to any person,
firm or corporation.

 

17.                               Arbitration

 

17.0         Company and Executive agree that any dispute
or claim concerning this Agreement, or the terms and conditions of employment
under this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration.  The arbitration proceedings will be conducted
under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
in effect at the time a demand for arbitration under the Rules is made.  The decision of the arbitrators, including
determination of the amount of any damages suffered, will be exclusive, final
and binding on Company and Executive, their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.  Each party will
bear that party’s own expenses in the arbitration proceedings for arbitrators’
fees and attorney fees, for that party’s witnesses, and other expenses of
presenting the case.  Other arbitration
costs, including administrative fees and fees for records or transcripts, will
be borne equally by Company and Executive.

 

18.                               Amendment; Waiver

 

18.0         This instrument contains the entire agreement
of the parties with respect to the employment of Executive by Company and
supersedes any prior Agreement between Company and Executive (it being
understood, however, that this agreement shall not affect any stock options granted
to Executive prior to the

 

12

 

date
hereof).  No amendment or modification of
this Agreement shall be valid unless evidenced by a written instrument executed
by the parties hereto.  No waiver by
either party of any breach by the other party of any provision or condition of
this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any similar or dissimilar provision
or condition at the same or any prior or subsequent time.

 

19.                               Governing Law

 

19.0         This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Kansas.

 

20.                               Notices

 

20.0         All notices which a party is required or may
