TRM ATM Corporation and eFunds Corporation

This Processing Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of April 1, 2008 (the
“Effective Date”) by eFunds Corporation (“eFunds”), and TRM ATM Corporation (“TRM” or “Customer”)
(and together with eFunds, the “Parties”).

1. Recitals

     a. Whereas, a dispute has arisen between the parties relating to eFunds’ demands for TRM’s
payment for services provided to TRM under the Master Services Agreement dated September 20, 2004
(the “MSA”);

     b. Whereas, a dispute has also arisen relating to TRM’s claims regarding eFunds’ performance
of services contemplated under the MSA;

     c. Whereas, the parties intend to resolve those disputes through this Agreement;

     d. Whereas, by executing this Agreement, the parties intend to supersede and replace the MSA
in its entirety;

     e. Whereas, in consideration for eFunds’ willingness to enter into this Agreement to provide
services to TRM, TRM agrees to pay eFunds the sum of $2,500,000, which represents payment in full
for (i) transition services rendered by eFunds under the MSA, and (ii) payment for early
termination and total contract value of the MSA (the “Initial Payment”), and $288,000 (the
“Secondary Payment”, together with the Initial Payment, the “Agreed Payment Amount”);

     f. Whereas, in consideration for TRM’s payment of the Agreed Payment Amount, eFunds has
expended significant effort and expense transitioning services to TRM and agreed to continue a
business relationship with TRM;

     g. Whereas, the payment of the Agreed Payment Amount by TRM to eFunds is an integral and
essential part of this new Agreement, and eFunds would not agree to provide any services to TRM
without TRM’s payment, and eFunds’ receipt, of this amount; Now, therefore, the Parties agree as follows:

     a. Pricing. In addition to the Agreed Payment Amount set forth in Section 3, Customer shall
pay eFunds the fees for products and services set forth in Attachment A, as amended from time to
time.

     b. eFunds may charge Customer any increase in out of pocket third party costs or fees actually
incurred (including the Pass-through fees) by eFunds that are not included in the transaction costs
or dial up service fees.

     c. Initial Payment. In consideration for eFunds’ willingness to continue to do business with
TRM, and eFunds’ execution of this new Agreement, Customer agrees to pay eFunds $2,500,000 in wired
or certified funds not later than two (2) business days from the execution of this Agreement.

 

 

     d. Secondary Payment. Customer shall pay the Secondary Payment in installments on the
following schedule: nine (9) monthly payments of $32,000, with the first payment to be billed as
part of the April 2008 invoice, and the final payment due with the December 2008 invoice.
Customer’s obligation to pay the Agreed Payment Amount shall survive any termination of this
Agreement, and if for any reason this Agreement is terminated prior to the December 2008 invoice,
the balance of the Secondary Payment will be due upon such termination.

     e. Other Payments. All other amounts to be paid to eFunds under this Agreement are due when
the applicable products or services are provided. Customer shall advise eFunds, within thirty (30)
days of the date of any invoice, if it has any objections to the invoice. If eFunds does not
receive an objection from Customer, Customer authorizes eFunds to initiate, and Customer agrees to
pay, an electronic funds transfer or ACH debit in the amount of the invoice to be debited from
Customer’s account thirty (30) days after the date of issuance of the invoice. If payments are not
received when due, eFunds may charge Customer interest on amounts due at the greater of the highest
legal rate or 1.5% per month; charge Customer any bank charges and other expenses (including but
not limited to attorney’s fees) related to nonpayment or collection; and bring any required legal
action to recover amounts due. Should Customer in good faith dispute all or a portion of the amount
due on any invoice or request any adjustment to an invoiced amount, Customer shall pay any
undisputed portion promptly and notify eFunds in writing of the nature and basis of the dispute
and/or adjustment as soon as possible and prior to the payment due date. Authorized
representatives of the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute prior to the
next payment due date. In the event that no resolution is reached, Customer shall pay the entire
outstanding disputed amount. If it is ultimately determined that Customer is due the disputed
amount, eFunds shall credit this amount, plus interest at the rate of one percent (1.5%) per month
on Customer’s next invoice following resolution of the dispute. eFunds reserves the right at it’s
sole discretion to change the payment method to deduct payment from interchange and surcharge
fees.

     f. Taxes. Except for taxes based on the income of eFunds, any taxes, including withholding
taxes or taxes based on the products and services provided under this Agreement, including but not
limited to sales, use, and personal property taxes or like kind taxes, shall be paid by the
Customer.

     g. Minimums. TRM shall use its best commercial efforts to achieve a dollar value of
Processing Services of at least $1,000,000 (“Volume Amount”) for each of the four years of the
Term. This figure is based on current number of transaction volume. For each month of the Term,
the Volume Amount many be adjusted downward in proportion to any decrease in volume based on a six
(6) month rolling average.

     h. Petro-Canada. Provided Customer makes the Initial Payment when due, eFunds shall continue
to remit to Customer all revenue, less fees charged by eFunds, as set forth in Part F of Attachment
A, generated by the PetroCanada agreement as set forth in the parties’ Purchase Agreement for the
remainder of the existing term of that agreement. Should Customer fail to pay the Initial Payment
when due, eFunds shall be entitled to retain all revenue generated by the PetroCanada agreement and
offset any such sums against the balance of the Initial Payment.

4. Preferred Provider

     Provided that eFunds maintains Processing Services in accord with the Service Levels now in
the MSA, Customer shall not move any ATMs that are currently processing with eFunds to another
Processor. Customer shall use eFunds as a service provider, pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, for all future acquired ATMs, provided that Customer is contractually permitted to do so
and consistent with heritage relationships associated with such machines. Additionally, eFunds
shall have a right of first refusal as to the ATMs presently under contract to other service
providers when that contract is expiring and/or subject to renewal. eFunds’ right of first refusal
shall not require Customer to bear any transition costs or other out-of-pocket costs, which costs
shall be borne by eFunds.

5. Term, Termination and Transition Assistance

     a. Supersedes MSA. Upon execution by Customer and eFunds, this Agreement supersedes and
replaces in its entirety the MSA and the MSA will no longer have any force or effect except as
expressly provided herein, and this Agreement shall define the respective obligations of both
Customer and eFunds from and after the date of this Agreement.

     b. Term. This Agreement shall run from the Effective Date and terminate on March 31, 2012 (the

 

 

“Term”). Following Customer’s payment of the Agreed Payment Amount, and the conclusion of the
Term, unless TRM terminates by giving no less than one hundred eighty (180) days prior written
notice of termination effective at the end of the Term or any Renewal Term, this Agreement shall
automatically renew for successive two (2)-year periods (“Renewal Term”) upon the same terms and
conditions, including fees and charges, under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to in writing
by both parties.

     b. Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety, effective thirty
(30) days after delivery of written notice to the other party of a material breach by the other
party that remains uncured for thirty (30) days after delivery of notice of material breach.
Either party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety, effective immediately upon written
notice, if the other party (i) fails to protect the other party’s Confidential Information in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors; (iii) suffers the appointment of a trustee, liquidator, or receiver for its business or
property; (iv) is the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, dissolution, or
liquidation proceeding; or (v) is adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt. Termination of this Agreement
shall not relieve either party from any obligation accrued through the date of termination or from
any terms and conditions in this Agreement that continue beyond termination. No early termination
of this Agreement is permitted under any circumstances except for those set forth in this section.
Customer acknowledges that eFunds incurs substantial expenses and makes substantial infrastructure,
technology and other investments in order to enable it to perform services for Customer under this
Agreement and that such expenses are substantially fixed for the duration of the Agreement.
Accordingly, Customer acknowledges that it is difficult to determine the exact damages that eFunds
will suffer as a result of any improper termination of this Agreement by Customer. As a result, if
Customer improperly terminates this Agreement, or if eFunds terminates this Agreement for the
Customer’s material breach, eFunds shall be entitled to the immediate payment by Customer of: (a)
the Agreed Payment Amount; (b) all fees earned but not paid prior to the date of termination; (C)
eFunds’ then-applicable termination, deconversion and/or change-over fees; (d) all fixed, monthly,
or annual fees; and (e) the number of each full or partial month remaining and unperformed times
the greater of: (i) the average monthly invoice, charged to Customer for the product(s) or
services(s) during the six (6) months preceding the date of termination (or such shorter time as
may have elapsed since the initial provision of such product(s) or service(s) by eFunds); or (ii)
the highest monthly invoice to Customer during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding
the date of Customer’s notice of termination hereunder.

     c. Transition Assistance. If the Initial Payment is not paid timely and in full when due as
provided in Section 3(c), eFunds has no obligation to provide any transition assistance to
Customer. Provided Customer makes the Agreed Payment Amount when due, upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement, eFunds shall provide reasonable transition assistance to Customer in
exchange for advance payment of its then-current charges for such services. This duty to provide
reasonable transition assistance shall continue for up to ninety (90) days following the
termination or expiration of this Agreement. eFunds shall have no obligation to provide such
transition services unless the Agreed Payment Amount plus any other amounts owed to eFunds under
this Agreement have been paid in full. Customer will pay for such services on a mutually
determined schedule.

7. Remedies and Limitations of Liability

     The parties acknowledge that circumstances could arise entitling a party to damages or
rescission arising from a failure by the other party to perform its obligations under this
Agreement and have agreed, in all such circumstances, that the remedies of the non-defaulting party
and the liabilities of the defaulting party shall be limited to those set forth in this Agreement.
For any breach or default of this Agreement by eFunds, the sole liability of eFunds shall be to
remedy the breach. Each party reserves the right to obtain equitable relief where appropriate.
Customer also waives any and all claims for incidental, special, punitive, indirect or
consequential damages of any kind. In addition to the preceding limitations, eFunds shall not be
liable for any losses, claims, demands, penalties, actions, causes of action, suits, obligations,
liabilities, damages, delays, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees,
(collectively “Losses”) of any kind unless Customer provides written notice to eFunds of the event
that gave rise to the alleged liability within thirty (30) days of occurrence. No action arising
out of this Agreement may be brought by Customer more than one (1) year following the event that
gave rise to the action. eFunds’ liability under this Agreement is limited, in all cases, in the
aggregate, to the amount of fees paid for the applicable product or service during the three (3)
month period immediately preceding the event that gave rise to the liability. If an eFunds’ service
is ever inoperative or unavailable, Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, except to the extent set
forth in section 12(b), is the retransmission of data when the service becomes operational again.
These limitations shall apply regardless of the form of action and whether the action is brought in
contract, tort (including, but not limited to, negligence or strict liability), or otherwise. Each
party acknowledges that the services provided and fees paid under this Agreement are based in part
upon the Customer’s willingness to accept the limitations of liabilities set forth in this section.

11. Intellectual Property, Software and Hardware

     a. Software. If eFunds uses its own proprietary software in delivering Processing Services to
Customer, eFunds grants to Customer a personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license to use
the software in object code format only, at an eFunds facility, during the term of this Agreement
and solely in connection with the Processing Services. The sole obligation of eFunds with respect
to such software is to replace any defective medium provided, at no charge to Customer. Any and
all such software provided by or used by eFunds and any derivative works therefrom or other
modifications or enhancements thereto remain the sole and exclusive property of eFunds. If eFunds
provides any computer software programs or applications such as its proprietary On-Line Access
Manager, for use by the Customer or by any merchants behind the Customer at locations other than
the facilities of eFunds, then eFunds grants to the Customer a non-exclusive license to use such
software in object code format only, during the term of this Agreement and solely for the purpose
of administering and maintaining Customer’s ATMs at which Transactions processed by eFunds
originate. The sole obligation of eFunds with respect to such software is to replace any defective
medium provided, at no charge to Customer. Any and all such software provided and any derivative
works therefrom or other modifications or enhancements thereto remain the sole and exclusive
property of eFunds. eFunds shall have no obligation to maintain, service, or upgrade any such
software. The Customer shall not, and shall not permit any merchant behind Customer to,
disassemble, reverse engineer, decompile, modify, or adapt any such software or any portion
thereof. Any and all Confidential Information, software or other work product provided by eFunds to
Customer, and any derivative works, modifications, adaptations or enhancements therefrom or
thereto, shall remain the sole and exclusive property of eFunds and be subject to the terms of any
license or other use restrictions contained in this Agreement.

     b. The Customer agrees that eFunds may store, disclose, and use information obtained by eFunds
under this Agreement to the extent and only in such manner that such storage, disclosure, and use
shall be for purposes of performing the obligations of eFunds under this Agreement or for purposes
of complying with federal, state, or local statutes, regulations, and requirements applicable to
eFunds, including but not limited to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Title V of the Financial
Services Modernization Act of 1999, their implementing regulations, and this subsection. In
addition, eFunds shall not compile, or rent or sell to others, any lists containing nonpublic
personal information (as that term is defined in Title V of the Financial Services Modernization
Act of 1999) to be used for direct marketing purposes.

     c. Hardware. If the Customer purchases equipment related to the delivery of the Processing
Services from eFunds, such equipment shall be delivered FOB eFunds and shall carry with it only the
manufacturer’s warranty, if any. EFUNDS DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, with respect to any such equipment supplied. Customer grants and eFunds
reserves a purchase money security interest in such equipment until all payments for the equipment
are received. The Customer agrees to cooperate with eFunds to perfect and protect any security
interest of eFunds.

12. Processing, Performance, Responsibilities of the Parties

     a. Products and Processing Services. The costs for services to be provided by eFunds shall be
as set forth in Attachment A of this Agreement. All costs of services in Attachment A are in
addition to the amount of the Agreed Payment Amount. eFunds may, from time to time during the term
of this Agreement, make additional Products or Processing Services or both available to Customer
(listed in Attachment A), generally by way of Product Announcements, Technical Bulletins, or other
written communication. Changes shall be made in accordance with Section 29(a), Changes.

     b. Performance. eFunds shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the Processing
Services available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, provided that eFunds may schedule reasonable
downtime in order to accomplish necessary maintenance or facility improvements.

     The availability of the eFunds Switch (“eFunds Switch Availability Target”) shall be at least
99.9%. Scheduled outage time is excluded from the availability calculation. This is a measurement
that calculates eFunds Switch availability on the basis of full or partial outages. The intention
of this measurement is to translate partial outages into impacts that in turn are translated into
equivalent outage minutes. The calculation for performance penalties based on these outage
minutes will be as follows: (i) f switch authorization levels fall below

 

 

50% an event will be opened and will remain open until authorization levels rises above 50%,
and (ii) to obtain whether 50% authorization level is achieved, the total number of minutes of all
events that occurred during a calendar month will be divided by the total number of available
processing minutes that could be available during the same calendar month. If eFunds, on a daily
average for any given month, fails to meet the eFunds Switch Availability Target, eFunds will pay
performance penalties as follows:

     — $1,000 for first month during any consecutive twelve (12) month period

     — $2,000 for second month during any consecutive twelve (12) month period

     — $5,000 for third month during any consecutive twelve (12) month period

     — $10,000 for fourth and any subsequent month during any consecutive twelve (12) month
period; Customer shall also be entitled to issue a notice of material default to eFunds pursuant to
Section 5(b)

     Cap — Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, performance penalties shall not exceed
20% of the total monthly invoice (excluding pass through) and shall represent the sole and
exclusive monetary remedy of Customer related to Switch Availability.

     c. Service Levels: eFunds Processing Services shall be consistent with the Service Levels
required at present by the MSA, but eFunds shall provide:

          (i) Terminal IDs. eFunds will provide terminal IDs and will activate terminals on a daily
(business day) basis. Requests for “SOLD” machines that are received by 11:00 AM (CST) will be
activated with the next business day’s scheduled roll-in (2:00 AM — CST). Requests for
“PLACED/MANAGED” machines that are received by 11:00 AM (CST) on Mondays will be included in the
scheduled Thursday roll-in (2:00 AM — CST) and requests received by 11:00 AM (CST) on Wednesdays
will be included in the scheduled Monday roll-in (2:00 AM — CST). Roll-ins are not performed on
holidays or designated system “RED” days.

          (ii) On all merchant owned machines processed through eFunds, eFunds will charge such
merchants any and all Reg E fees incurred through those machines directly through such merchants’
settlement accounts, provided such accounts are still accurate and valid. To the extent such
account information is no longer valid or if such account is no longer active, or with respect to
any TRM-owned machines, any Reg. E fees incurred shall be chargeable directly to TRM and it will be
TRM’s responsibility to recoup such fees from such merchants.

          (iii) Interchange payment. eFunds will work in good faith with TRM to consider a processing
change that would permit payment of interchange fees through eFunds (to permit better auditing of
the fees).

     d. Reliance on Customer’s Instructions. eFunds shall generally receive all necessary
instructions, information, and data from the Customer. In the event that instructions, information,
and data is transmitted directly to eFunds by third parties on behalf of the Customer, eFunds shall
be entitled to rely reasonably upon any instructions, information, and data so provided.

     e. File Ownership and Security. eFunds acknowledges that all data files provided by the
Customer are the property of Customer and that use of and access to such files does not create in
eFunds any right, title, or interest in such files, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
eFunds will implement reasonable security precautions with respect to the Customer’s data files to
prevent the loss or alteration of, or unauthorized access to, the Customer’s data files.

     f. Security and Protection of Products. The Customer acknowledges that all Products and
Processing Services are the property of eFunds and that the Customer’s use of them does not create
in the Customer any right, title, or interest in them, except as expressly provided in this
Agreement The Customer will implement reasonable security precautions to prevent the loss or
alteration of, or unauthorized access to, the Products and Processing Services.

     g. Customer Duties and Responsibilities. The Customer assumes responsibility for the
consequence of any instructions or other information given to its customers by the Customer. The
Customer also assumes responsibility for auditing and balancing the data contained in any reports
and for reconciling any out-of-balance condition. The Customer will notify eFunds of any
out-of-balance condition that the Customer believes to be, or reasonably should have believed to
have been, caused by a failure of the Processing Services, by midnight of the third
(3rd) business day immediately following the day of receipt of such data by the
Customer. Any failure of the Customer to notify eFunds of any out-of-balance condition within such
time period waives the Customer’s right to any adjustment, even if otherwise available.

 

 

13. Network Access and Other Third Party Services

If, as a part of the Processing Services, the Customer requests access to Networks or to other
third party service providers, the Customer agrees to enter into the appropriate agreements with
such Networks or third party service providers, including, but not limited to, sponsoring financial
institutions. The Customer agrees to comply with the terms of any such Network or third party
service provider agreement, all applicable Network operating rules and regulations, and to pay any
fees imposed by Network(s) or third party service providers with respect to Customer. eFunds shall
sign a “processor” or other agreement if required by the Network or third party service provider.
The Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold eFunds harmless from any fees, costs, liability or
obligation to the Network or third party service provider arising out of any such agreement or
otherwise, unless eFunds has specifically assumed such fees, costs, liabilities or obligations
under this Agreement, and notwithstanding any provision of any such “processor” or other agreement
signed by eFunds. It is understood and agreed that any Network sponsorship for the Customer under
this Agreement shall be coterminous with the term of this Agreement; provided, however, that both
parties shall comply with any applicable Network operating rules and regulations and all applicable
laws after any termination of any sponsorship provided for pursuant to this Agreement. While
eFunds will make commercially reasonable efforts to sponsor Customer for membership in Networks as
requested by the Customer, Network membership is contingent upon Customer meeting Network
requirements and approval by the Network of the Customer’s completed application. Each Network
establishes its own criteria for membership, and eFunds makes no representations or warranties
concerning its ability to obtain membership for Customer or any customer. If eFunds believes that
Customer will not meet the requirements of a Network, eFunds shall have no duty to provide such
sponsorship. TRM agrees to ensure that any eFunds owned or managed Network is priority routed
first as long as it does not result in TRM suffering any Economic Harm. Economic Harm shall mean
(i) any lost or reduced revenue that TRM would suffer as a result of such priority routing, or (ii)
any additional cost or expense incurred by TRM associated with such priority routing that TRM would
otherwise not incur. Such Economic Harm will be based on published Interchange rates, network fees
or any other compliance related expense or cost associated with the operation of off-premise ATMs.
In the event that TRM would have Economic Harm, before eFunds is removed from being priority routed
first, eFunds shall be permitted to propose an offer to alleviate the Economic Harm and ensure that
TRM would remain in an economic neutral position, provided that such proposal shall be made and
implemented in a reasonable period of time given the nature of the Economic Harm

14. Modifications to the Processing Services

     If any Network or third party service provider mandates modifications to the Processing
Services, or modifications are required to the Processing Services because of the type or types of
terminals used by the Customer for the capture of Live Transactions processed by the Processing
Services, the Customer shall be responsible for paying for such changes on a time-and-materials
basis; provided, however, that eFunds will use reasonable efforts to prorate such charges among its
customers using the affected Network, service provider, or terminal. If any such change would
require Customer to incur costs in excess of 10% of the Volume Amount, incurred on an annual basis,
and such change is caused solely because of an issue unique to eFunds’ processing platform or
system and would not be incurred by Customer if Customer had been processing with an alternative
provider, then Customer, at its option, may terminate this Agreement upon 60 days written notice to
eFunds. For purposes of the foregoing, Customer may not elect to terminate this Agreement if there
is only one alternative provider whose platform would not cause Customer to incur such additional
costs. Rather, the purpose of this provision is to only grant such right to Customer in the event
eFunds’ services are so unique and outside standard industry practice so as to result in Customer
incurring the requisite costs that will create Customer’s right to terminate as set forth above.

     In addition, eFunds reserves the right to modify the Processing Services provided during the
term of this Agreement. If a modification initiated by eFunds materially degrades the quality or
value of the Processing Services to the Customer, then the Customer may terminate this Agreement
within sixty (60) days of providing written notice to eFunds. Modifications under this section 14
are not subject to the requirements of Section 29(a), Changes.

15. Reporting Responsibilities

     The Customer shall be responsible for any Customer specified reporting that is mandated by a
Network or third party service provider. Any fees

 

 

assessed with respect to such reporting shall be the responsibility of the Customer.

16. Cooperation

The obligations of eFunds under this Agreement are subject to and conditioned upon the cooperation
of the Customer and the timely performance by the Customer of its obligations, including, but not
limited to, compliance by the Customer with any requirements contained in the Documentation.

17. Financial Obligations

The Customer will maintain account(s) with such financial institutions as may be required for
Network sponsorship and will maintain such balances as may be required for the settlement of Live
Transaction activity, authorized adjustments, and any other financial obligations arising under the
Processing Services.

18. Regulatory Access

eFunds agrees to provide reasonable access during normal business hours for audit purposes to any
state or federal agencies with jurisdiction over the Customer, upon prior written request of the
Customer. Any such access shall be granted subject to all applicable information and physical
security requirements of eFunds then in effect. eFunds agrees that the Federal Financial
Institutions Examination Council will have the authority and responsibility provided to the other
regulatory agencies pursuant to the Bank Service Corporation Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1867, relating to
services performed by contract or otherwise.

19. Disaster Recovery.

eFunds shall take reasonable precautions to prevent and mitigate any disaster that may affect the
ability of eFunds to provide the services to be performed by eFunds under this Agreement. eFunds
shall maintain a documented and tested disaster recovery plan (the “DR Plan”) during the term of
this Agreement. The DR Plan will: (a) include the location of recovery site(s) for each eFunds
location at which the services are provided and/or where Customer data is stored; (b) address
business continuation, disaster recovery, and crisis management issues; (c) be designed to recover
business operations as soon as reasonably practical under the circumstances after a declared
disaster; and (d) provide for the ongoing testing of such DR Plan. eFunds further agrees that
Customer may participate in DR Plan testing at its expense. Upon the occurrence of a declared
disaster at any of the eFunds locations involved in the provision of services under this Agreement
or where Customer data is stored, eFunds shall implement the DR Plan and shall notify Customer of
such implementation. Following recovery of business operations, eFunds shall provide to Customer a
post-incident report that documents the implementation and efficacy of the DR Plan. At Customer’s
request, eFunds will provide a summary of the DR Plan (“Summary Plan”) to the Customer. Subject to
Section 29(c), eFunds agrees to release such additional information as may be reasonably necessary
to allow the Customer to develop its own disaster recovery plan to work in concert with the eFunds
DR Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the DR Plan, any Summary Plan, and any information provided
to the Customer by eFunds in connection with the DR Plan or Summary Plan pursuant to this section
19 shall be considered and treated as Confidential Information of eFunds under Section 29(c) of
this Agreement.

20. Bonds and Insurance

In connection with the Processing Services, eFunds and Customer, in conjunction with their
affiliates, shall maintain: (i) a fidelity bond covering loss of money, securities, or other
property resulting from one or more fraudulent or dishonest acts for which a party is legally
liable, with a minimum limit of $3,000,000; (ii) an Errors and Omissions insurance policy with a
minimum limit of $1,000,000; and (iii) a general liability policy with a minimum limit of
$1,000,000.

21. Audit and Third Party Review

Either party shall have the right, during the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year
thereafter, upon a minimum of thirty (30) days advance written notice and during normal business
hours, to conduct a review of the books and records of the other party to determine or to verify
the compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of fees. The scope
and the objectives of the audit shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties in advance of such
audit.

22. Responsibility for Compliance with Laws

The functions and features of the Processing Services shall be capable of complying with all
federal laws and regulations in effect at the time the Processing Services were ordered by the
Customer, to the extent such functions and features as described in the Documentation allow or
assist the Customer to comply with such federal laws and regulations. If changes in federal law or
regulation require any modification to the Processing Services,

 

 

eFunds shall, at its expense, make such changes to the Processing Services as are required to
conform to then-current federal law and regulation, except to the extent such changes are outside
the features and functions of the Processing Services, or to the extent that such changes require
changes to Customer’s facilities or operation, which shall be the sole responsibility of Customer.
eFunds shall also use reasonable efforts to conform the Processing Services to state and local laws
and regulations; provided, however, that the Customer shall be responsible for notifying eFunds of
all such laws and regulations. The Customer shall compensate eFunds on a time-and-materials basis,
prorated among those customers of eFunds requesting the modification, for making any necessary
modifications to the Processing Services as a result of state or local law.

23. Export Restriction

Regardless of any disclosure made by the Customer to eFunds of an ultimate destination of any
Products or Processing Services, the Customer will not export or re-export, either directly or
indirectly, any Products, Processing Services, or other technology received from eFunds, without
first obtaining, at the Customer’s expense, any required export or re-export license from the
United States Government. In no event shall the Customer export or re-export any Products,
Processing Services, or other technology to any country, individual, end-user, or end-use
prohibited under U.S. Department of Commerce or U.S. Department of Treasury Regulations.

24. Local Lines

The Customer shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for provision and maintenance of local
dial-up lines used by the Customer’s ATMs, POS devices or other devices that accept debit
or credit cards for payment purposes at which Transactions processed by eFunds originate. The
Customer shall provide telecommunication line access for each such ATM, POS device or other device
that accepts debit or credit cards for payment purposes at the Customer’s expense.

25. Merchant Interaction

The Customer shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for providing any sales and marketing
services to merchants, including but not limited to arranging for hardware shipment, delivery,
installation, proposing rollout schedules to eFunds for its approval, ensuring compliance by
merchants with Network rules and regulations, ensuring compliance by the Customer and merchants
with all applicable international, federal and state laws or regulations, handling of all
adjustments and chargebacks, providing on-going monitoring and service of all ATMs (POS devices and
other devices that accept debit or credit cards for payment purposes), and for providing settlement
reporting and merchant statementing to all merchants behind the Customer. eFunds does not
undertake any direct relationship or privity with any merchant behind the Customer. In the event
that the Customer requests that eFunds interacts directly with any such merchant behind the
Customer to an extent beyond the provision of the Processing Services, the Customer shall
compensate eFunds for such interaction on a time-and-materials basis.

26. ATM and Telecommunications

     The Customer agrees to maintain its ATM configuration and its telecommunications network in
accordance with the standards set forth in the Documentation. If the Customer does not maintain
such standards, eFunds reserves the right to pass through any and all additional related charges to
Customer that eFunds incurs as a result of the Customer’s non-conformity to the eFunds standards in
regard to ATM configuration and telecommunications network. These pass through charges will be
listed on the Customer invoice.

27. Equipment Return

Any equipment provided by eFunds and placed at the Customer site during the term of this Agreement
must be returned at termination of this Agreement. Customer will pay to eFunds an amount equal to
the replacement cost of any equipment not returned to eFunds within thirty (30) days after
termination. The equipment may include, but is not limited to ATM modems, workstations, and other
telecommunications equipment. If the Customer chooses to reconfigure its telecommunications system
during the term of this Agreement, and such reconfiguration calls for the early return of equipment
or lines provided by or through eFunds, the Customer shall be responsible for and invoiced for any
charges or fees assessed due to early termination of the telecommunications services.

28. Use of Information

Nonpublic Personal Information (“NPPI”) about Customer’s consumer customers which is disclosed to
eFunds under an ACH or EFT agreement or for credit card or debit card transaction processing will

 

 

be used by eFunds only to effect the transaction for which the NPPI was transmitted to eFunds,
pursuant to Section 502 (b)(2) of the Gramm/Leach/Bliley Act (15 U.S.C. Section 6802(b)(2)).
eFunds agrees to maintain the confidentiality of this NPPI and to use and redisclose it only as
Customer specifically directs. eFunds’ standard form contracts provide for the protection of
confidential information in accordance with Title V of the Gramm/Leach/Bliley Act. The language in
these agreements is intended to satisfy the requirement of a “contractual agreement” under Section
502(b)(2) of the Gramm/Leach/Bliley Act. NPPI disclosed by Customer to any of eFunds’ companies may
be used by the recipient to protect Customer and Customer’s customers from actual or potential
fraud, unauthorized transactions, claims or other liability, as well as to resolve customer
disputes or inquiries pursuant to Section 502 (e)(3)(B) or (C) of the Gramm/Leach/Bliley Act (15
U.S.C. Section 6802 (3)(B) or (C)). eFunds agrees to maintain appropriate administrative, technical
and physical safeguards for all customer records and information Customer discloses to eFunds.
These safeguards will (1) insure the confidentiality of customer records and information; (2)
protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such records;
and (3) protect against unauthorized access to or use of such records or information that would
result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any customer, as required by Section 501 (b) of the
Gramm/Leach/Bliley Act (15 U.S.C. Section 6801 (b)).

29. Miscellaneous

     a. Changes. Changes to this Agreement may only be made by the execution of a written
amendment signed by authorized representatives of both parties.

     b. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for any Losses or be in breach of its
obligations under this Agreement as a consequence of any act or cause that is beyond its reasonable
control and without its fault or negligence, provided that reasonable notice is given to the other
party of the existence of such act or cause.

     c. Confidential Information means a party’s proprietary or confidential information that has
been designated as Confidential Information or that, by the nature of the circumstances surrounding
the disclosure, ought to, in good faith be treated as confidential or proprietary information.
Confidential Information shall not include information that is or becomes publicly known through no
wrongful act of the party receiving the information; becomes known without confidential or
proprietary restriction from a source other than the disclosing party; can be shown by written
records that the recipient possessed the information prior to the disclosure by the disclosing
party; or was or is independently developed without use of or reference to Confidential Information
from the other party. Each party agrees and acknowledges that (i) during the course of this
Agreement, it may learn certain Confidential Information of the other party; (ii) Confidential
Information shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the disclosing party; (iii)
Confidential Information is made available to the receiving party on a limited use basis solely for
use as required by or set forth in this Agreement; (iv) it will not sell, disclose, or otherwise
make Confidential Information available, in whole or in part, in a manner not provided for in this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other party, except that a party may disclose
Confidential Information to its affiliates and independent contractors who have assumed
confidentiality obligations in accordance with this Agreement and except that a party may disclose
Confidential Information as required by law; and (v) it will utilize no less than a reasonable
degree of care to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information to any unauthorized person or
entity.

Agreement described herein to anyone except as to that information previously provided in
Customer’s 8K filed on or about December 21, 2007, or as required by law or any governmental
agency, court or legal proceeding or to an accountant or attorney of Customer or eFunds as required
only for the rendering of such professional services, so long as any such attorney or accountant is
informed of this Confidentiality Provision prior to the disclosure of information protected by it
and agrees in writing to abide by its terms. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit
or impede Customer or eFunds from disclosing facts to a governmental regulatory body regarding
issues within the jurisdiction of that body.

     e. Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce at any time any provision of this
Agreement, or to exercise any right provided for by this Agreement, shall not in any way be

to exercise such right at a later time.

     f. Assignment. Neither party shall be permitted to assign this Agreement or any rights,

     h. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, other than the requirement that Customer pay the Agreed Payment Amount to eFunds,

to exercise its judgment, give its consent, or perform an obligation, a standard of reasonableness
shall apply. The parties expressly acknowledge that the terms and conditions of this Agreement
have been the subject of review, discussion, and participation by both parties.

     l. Headings. The titles and headings preceding the text of the sections and paragraphs of

    Agreement

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual promises herein
contained the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and as
an inducement material for Holding Company and Partners to engage in the Merger
the parties hereto agree as follows:

    

    
      
        
           

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    1.           Engagement as
Consultant.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, effective as of the effective time (“Effective Time”) of the merger of
Partners Bank into Bank, the Bank hereby engages Consultant as a consultant and
advisor of the Bank to assist in the transition of ownership and management of
the Bank following the Merger and Consultant hereby accepts such engagement as a
consultant and advisor of the Bank.  The term of this Agreement shall
commence on the Effective Time and shall continue for a term of 18 months (the
“Consulting Period”).

     

    2.           Duties of
Consultant.

     

    (a)           Consultant’s
duties as a consultant hereunder shall be to furnish to the Bank, on a regular
basis not to exceed 30 hours per week during regular business hours, subject to
the terms hereof, such advisory and consulting services in connection with the
business of the Bank as may from time to time be requested by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Bank after the Effective Time.  The intent
hereof is to make the benefit of Consultant’s experience, abilities and
knowledge available to the Bank during the Consulting Period in order to assist
the transition of borrowing and depository relationships of Partners Bank to the
Bank.

     

    (b)           Consultant
shall make himself available, as an independent contractor, to render such
services on a reasonable basis.  The Parties anticipate that
Consultant shall perform Consultant’s services on site at the Bank’s
facilities.  The Bank shall provide reasonable office space, general
office supplies and such reasonable administrative staff support as requested by
Consultant.  During the term of consultancy, Consultant shall be
reimbursed for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by him in
discharging his obligations hereunder, including but not limited to travel and
entertainment expenses and access to any athletic tickets possessed by the Bank;
provided such expenses are timely submitted and documented, in accordance with
the expense reimbursement policy of the Bank.  Any additional or
unusual expenses or materials needed by Consultant in connection with the
performance of services hereunder shall be provided by the Bank but only if
approved in writing in advance by the Bank.

     

    3.           Independent Contractor
Status.  It is hereby acknowledged and understood that
Consultant shall be an independent contractor. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed so as to create an employment relationship between
Consultant and Bank.  Consultant will not be eligible for any pension,
bonus, vacation pay, sick pay, or other fringe benefits that Bank may provide to
its employees.  All responsibility for the withholding of funds for
social security taxes, federal and state income taxes, or any other tax with
respect to Consultant’s services hereunder shall be the sole and absolute
obligation of Consultant.

     

    4.           Consulting
Fee.  In consideration of the consulting services to be
rendered by Consultant throughout the Consulting Period, the Bank shall pay to
Consultant an annual rate of $175,000, paid monthly at such times as the Bank
shall determine.  By virtue of Consultant’s status as an independent
contractor, all payments hereunder shall be made without any withholding for
federal income tax purposes and on an annual basis the Bank shall deliver an IRS
Form 1099 to Consultant.

     

    5.           Bonus.  In
consideration of retention of borrowing and depository relationships of Partners
Bank as well as the generation of new and additional business for the Bank
during the

    

      
        
           

        

        
          2

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

    Consulting
Period, the Bank shall pay bonuses upon such terms and subject to meeting such
goals as set forth in Appendix A, attached hereto and made a part hereof by this
reference.

     

    6.           Termination for disability
or death.

    

    (a)  The
Bank or Consultant may terminate this Agreement after having established
Consultant's Disability.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability"
means a physical or mental infirmity that impairs Consultant's ability to
substantially perform his duties under this Agreement and that impairs
Consultant's ability to substantially perform his duties under this Agreement
for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days).  The Board of the Bank
shall determine in good faith, based upon competent medical advice and other
factors that they reasonably believe to be relevant, whether or not Consultant
is and continues to be disabled for purposes of this Agreement.  As a
condition to any benefits, the Board may require Consultant to submit to such
physical or mental evaluations and tests as it deems reasonably appropriate, at
the Bank's expense.

    

    (b)  In
the event of such Disability, Consultant's obligation to perform services under
this Agreement will terminate.  In the event of such termination,
Consultant shall receive his Consulting Fee, as defined in Section 4, at the
rate in effect on the Date of Termination for a period of three (3) months
following the Date of Termination by reason of Disability.

    

    (c)  In
the event of Consultant's death during the term of this Agreement, this
Agreement shall terminate.

    

    7.           Covenant of
Confidentiality.

     

    (a)  Consultant
acknowledges that, in and as a result of Consultant’s engagement hereunder,
Consultant will be making use of, acquire knowledge of and/or add to
confidential or proprietary information relating to the Bank and its affiliates,
including, without limitation, the Bank’s lists of customers and accounts,
systems, procedures, policies, manuals, advertising, marketing plans, marketing
strategies, trade secrets, business plans, financial data, strategies, methods
of conducting business, price lists, formulas, processes, procedures, standards,
know-how, manuals, techniques, technology, confidential reports, and all other
information, knowledge, or data of any kind or nature relating to the products,
services, or business of the Bank or any subsidiary, parent or other affiliate
of the Bank (collectively, “Confidential Information”), provided further that
the term Confidential Information in this Agreement shall be interpreted
coextensively with, and not broader than, the term “trade secret” as defined in
Section 2(d) of the Illinois Trade Secrets Act and coextensively with the
confidential obligations of bank employees and directors under federal banking
regulations.  Consultant covenants and agrees that Consultant shall
not, at any time during or following the term of Consultant’s engagement by the
Bank, directly or indirectly, except in furtherance of the Bank’s business and
in accordance with the Bank’s policies, use, disseminate, divulge or disclose,
for any purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information.

     

    (b)           Upon
termination of Consultant’s engagement by the Bank, whether such termination was
by Consultant or the Bank, all documents, records, notebooks, and similar
repositories of or documents containing any Confidential Information with
respect

    

    
      
        
           

        

        
          3

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

    to
Holding Company, Bank, Partners or Partners Bank, including all existing copies
or extractions thereof, then in Consultant’s possession or in Consultant’s
control, whether prepared by Consultant or others, shall be the sole property of
the Bank.  Upon termination, all documents, records, notebooks, and
similar repositories of or documents containing any Confidential Information,
including all existing copies, extractions thereof or renderings created
therefrom, shall be promptly returned to the Bank and all duplications retained
by Consultant in paper or electronic form shall immediately be
destroyed.

     

    8.           Restrictive
Covenant.  Through Consultant’s engagement by the Bank,
Consultant will acquire additional and intimate knowledge about the customers,
financial data, price, and business negotiations and business techniques of the
Bank, as they may now exist or as they may be developed in the future.
Consultant acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to this Agreement Consultant
may perform services for firms, corporations, and other associations and
business enterprises and individuals, families, and trusts which Consultant may
solicit as clients and customers of the Bank (“Customers”), and in so doing, has
and will utilize the Bank’s ideas, techniques and expertise in establishing an
even greater rapport with such customers.

     

    In order
to avoid the inadvertent disclosure of the Bank’s confidential matters, and as
consideration for all of the benefits provided to Consultant hereunder and in
further consideration of the Merger Consideration received by Consultant
pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Consultant hereby covenants and agrees
that:

    

    (a)           Noncompetition.

    

    (i)           During
Consultant’s Consulting Period with the Bank and for a period of two (2) years
after the termination of Consultant’s engagement by the Bank (the “Period”),
whether such termination is by the Bank or by the Consultant or is for any or no
reason, Consultant agrees that Consultant will not directly or indirectly
(whether as an owner, operator, employee, officer, director, manager,
consultant, agent, independent contractor, or otherwise) participate in the
ownership, management, financing, operation or control of, or be employed by any
bank, savings and loan, credit union, or other financial institution or provide
banking, lending, credit, or other services similar to those performed by the
Bank as of the Effective Time (the “Restricted Business”) within any city, town
or county of the State of Illinois in which Bank has an office or has filed an
application for regulatory approval to establish an office, throughout the terms
of this Agreement (the “Restricted Area”).

    

    (ii)         The
constraint set forth above in Section 5(a)(i) shall not prevent Consultant
from making passive investments, not to exceed 5% of the total equity ownership,
in any publicly traded enterprise engaged in the Restricted Business within the
Restricted Area, as measured by the date of investment by
Consultant.

     

    (b)           Nonsolicitation.  Consultant
agrees that during the Period, Consultant shall not:

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          4

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

    (i)           Directly
or indirectly (A) solicit for employment or attempt to hire any individual
then employed by Bank or any of the affiliated or related entities,
subsidiaries, holding companies, or otherwise of the Bank (the “Bank Related
Entities”) or any former employee employed by the Bank or Bank Related Entities
during the one-year period after such former employee has voluntarily terminated
his or her employment with the Bank or any of the Bank Related Entities, or
(B) encourage any employee of the Bank or any of the Bank Related Entities
to terminate his or her employment with the Bank or such Bank Related Entity for
any reason; or

    

    (ii)       
  Directly or indirectly (A) solicit any Customer, client or
entity having a business relationship with the Bank or any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Bank, which is a prospect of the Bank or any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Bank that has had contact with the Bank or any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Bank during the Consulting Period, or which Consultant has
actively pursued on behalf of the Bank or any affiliate or subsidiary of the
Bank, or (B) contact any such Customer, client or prospect for the purpose
of encouraging such Customer, client or prospect to terminate its business
relationship with the Bank or any affiliate or subsidiary of the
Bank.

    

    9.           Reasonableness of
Restrictions.

     

    (a)           Consultant
has carefully read and considered the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof
and, having done so, agrees that the restrictions set forth therein (including,
but not limited to, the time period of restriction and the geographical areas of
restriction set forth in Section 8 hereof) are fair and reasonable and are
reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the
Bank.

     

    (b)           Consultant
represents that Consultant’s experience, capabilities, and personal assets are
such that this Agreement does not deprive Consultant from either earning a
livelihood in the unrestricted business activities which remain open to
Consultant or from otherwise adequately and appropriately supporting Consultant
and Consultant’s family.

     

    (c)           In
the event that any of the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 shall be held to
be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless
continue to be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable
parts had not been included therein.  In the event that any provision
of Section 8 relating to time period and/or areas of restriction shall be
declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period
or areas such court deems reasonable and enforceable, said time period and/or
areas of restriction shall be deemed to become and thereafter be the maximum
time period and/or areas which such court deems reasonable and
enforceable.

     

    10.         Delegation of Duties and
Assignment of Rights.

     

    (a)         Consultant
may not delegate the performance of any of Consultant’s obligations or duties
hereunder, or assign any rights hereunder. Any such purported delegation or
assignment shall 

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          5

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    be
void.  The Bank may assign all of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement in writing, without prior notice to or consent of Consultant, to
a person or entity acquiring the principal assets used or useful in the
operation of the Bank’s business or portion thereof for which Consultant is
involved or stock of the Bank or otherwise gained control
thereof.  Such assignment shall not be effective until such time as
the Bank provides written notice to Consultant of the assignment.

     

    (b)         In
the event of an assignment by the Bank, each reference in this Agreement to the
Bank shall include the assignee from and after the date of such
assignment.  In the event the assignment occurs after a Change in
Control (as hereinafter defined) of the Bank, this Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect; provided, however, the Restricted Area shall remain as
defined immediately prior to the Change in Control.  The term Change
in Control shall have the meaning as set forth in the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956, as amended, and in the regulations promulgated thereunder.

     

    11.         Governing
Law.  The construction and interpretation of this Agreement
shall at all times and in all respects be governed by the laws of the State of
Illinois.

     

    12.         Severability.  The
provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or
unenforceability of any one or more of the provisions hereof shall not affect
the validity and enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

     

    13.         Notices.  Any
notice required to be given hereunder shall be sufficient and deemed given when
in writing, and sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested,
first-class postage prepaid, or by courier service, to the parties hereto at the
addresses set forth on the signature page hereto.

     

    14.         Remedies.  Consultant
acknowledges and agrees that a breach by Consultant of the provisions of this
Agreement will cause the Bank irreparable injury and
damage.  Consultant, therefore, expressly agrees that the Bank shall
be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent a breach of this
Agreement, or any part thereof by Consultant, or by Consultant’s partners,
agents, representatives, servants, employers, employees and/or any and all
persons directly or indirectly acting for or with Consultant, and to secure its
enforcement, in addition to any other remedy to which the Bank might be
entitled.  Any and all of the Bank’s remedies for the breach of this
Agreement shall be cumulative and the pursuit of one remedy shall not be deemed
to exclude any and all other remedies with respect to the subject matter
hereof.

     

    15.         Advice of
Counsel.  Consultant acknowledges he has read this Agreement
and any attached exhibits, understands their terms and signs the Agreement
voluntarily of his own free will, without coercion or duress, and with full
understanding of the significance and binding effect of the
Agreement.  Consultant further acknowledges he has been advised by
Holding Company that it is in his best interests to be represented by counsel
with respect to the execution of this Agreement and to thoroughly discuss all
aspects of this Agreement with his attorney.  Consultant has been
represented by counsel of his own choosing in connection with the negotiation
and execution of this Agreement.  The terms of this Agreement have
been freely and equally negotiated between the parties hereto; and no term or
provision hereof shall be construed against either party due to such party’s
drafting of any such term or provision.

    16.         Entire Agreement;
Waiver. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding by
and between the Bank and Consultant with respect to the engagement of Consultant
herein referred to, and no representations, promises, agreements or
understandings, written or oral, not herein contained shall be of any force or
effect. This Agreement supersedes any prior employment or consulting agreement
or change in control agreement to which Consultant is a party, except that the
Management Continuity Agreement shall remain in full force and effect,
specifically including the restrictive covenants contained therein, which shall
be in addition to and not in lieu of the restrictive covenants contained in this
Agreement. No change or modification hereof shall be valid or binding unless the
same is in writing and signed by the party intended to be bound.  No
waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same is in
writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be
enforced.  No valid waiver of any provision of or breach of this
Agreement at any time shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision or
subsequent breach of this Agreement at such time or will be deemed a valid
waiver of such provision or subsequent breach at any other time.

    IN

    Bonus
pool of $200,000

    

    Any bonus
will be paid at the end of the 18 month Consulting Agreement, and the date of
termination of the agreement will be the “Measurement Date”

    

    Calculation of Bonus Pool
Payout: The amount of the payment from the bonus pool will be calculated
as follows:

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              ·

            	
              At
      the closing of the merger, the aggregate dollar amount (based on a
      three-month average) of the sum of Partners' gross loans receivable
      (exclusive of loan loss reserves and/or purchase accounting adjustments)
      plus deposits exclusive of purchase accounting adjustments will be the
      “Initial Measurement Amount”... at March 31, 2008, using a three month
      average, the Initial Measurement Amount would have been approximately
      $172.5 million consisting of gross loans of $90.2 million and deposits of
      $82.3 million

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              ·

            	
              At
      the closing of the merger and during the term of the Consulting Agreement,
      all Partners’ loans and deposits (including new loan and deposit
      relationships brought to FCLF by Bart Solon and additional loans and
      deposits of Partners clients brought to FCLF by Bart Solon) and all new
      FCLF loans and deposits principally generated by Mr. Solon will be
      separately flagged in the FCLF systems and such information shall be made
      available to Mr. Solon

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              ·

            	
              At
      the Measurement Date, the amount of the bonus pool payment will be based
      on the ratio of the aggregate dollar amount of the flagged loans and
      deposits (based on a three-month average), determined in the same manner
      as at the closing of the merger, in comparison to the aggregate Initial
      Measurement Amount as follows:
